What Its Known For

Energy Corridor got its name from the booming oil and gas corporations taking root here.

The area is also lush with lots of green space and large parks.

Surrounded 26,000 acres of public park.

ENERGY CORRIDOR, HOUSTON

The Energy Corridor is a hub that plays host to some of the nation’s largest energy companies. Located just west of the Memorial area along I-10, this area is a center point between Downtown and one of Houston’s biggest suburbs, Katy.

Along with being close to all of the shops and eats you could ever want in the Memorial area, there’s plenty to do and see around the Energy Corridor. Get your steps in and enjoy the nature along the Terry Hershy Hike & Bike Trail, or throw your fave coworkers in a group text to get a Top Golf happy hour planned out — pretty much everyone is always down for activities that involve drinking beer and fake sports.

APARTMENTS IN THE ENERGY CORRIDOR

If you work in the area, leasing an apartment relatively close by is strongly recommended — that I-10 commute can be pretty rough around rush hour, and there is a finite amount of podcasts to listen to. If you’re looking for “bang for your buck”, this neighborhood definitely has it! The price per square footage around here is pretty hard to beat compared to similar places inside the 610 Loop.

It's far but it's lit. It's a bit of a drive from central Houston, but if you're willing to compromise on location, there's a lot to see in the area.
