Fifth Street offers city amenities on the outskirts of Houston

Fifth Street is a suburb in Stafford, Texas, about a 30-minute drive from downtown Houston. Close to various amenities, including community parks and grocery stores, Fifth Street also offers easy accessibility for commuters. "Route 59 is the main artery to get into downtown, and Stafford sits right on top of it," says Jay Thomas, Broker of the Jay Thomas Real Estate Team at eXp Realty, who grew up in the area and has been selling homes since 2006. "It's a small, quiet town with hard-working people."

Fifth Street's American Legion Park features a walking trail that encircles the lake.

Old and new homes converge in Fifth Street

Established ranch and manufactured homes sit along Fifth Street itself, while larger New Traditionals with brick facades and arched entryways can be found in nearby subdivisions like Promenade. Many homes price between $200,000 and $400,000, though some larger residences with ample square footage can sell for more than $600,000. Local Realtor Lisa Baer of Martha Turner Sotheby's International Realty notes that homes within the 610 Loop tend to be expensive. However, Fifth Street sits outside of the Loop, making for a more affordable price point without sacrificing proximity to city amenities.

Route 59 is one of Fifth Street's major thoroughfares

Fifth Street is not walkable, and without reliable public transportation options, vehicle access is paramount. As noted by Thomas, though, Route 59 offers easy travels around the area, while Highway 90 also connects residents closer to Houston.

Stafford City Park is a top spot for outdoor recreation

There are plenty of recreation options in Fifth Street. Stafford City Park is a top spot for pickup basketball games under its covered courts, neighbored by the Fifth Street Community Center. American Legion Park and Independence Park also sit nearby, offering looped walking trails that circle the area's small ponds. For an indoor attraction, Main Event is a mecca offering bowling, laser tag, mini golf and virtual reality experiences.
