KATY, TEXAS

While still considered a part of the Greater Houston Area, Katy has grown from endless miles of rice fields to a small suburb, to now — a booming city center all of its own. People love Katy for its suburban convenience, easy access to major highways, and endless dining options. The area has expanded rapidly over the past few decades, and shows no signs of stopping introducing new businesses, entertainment, and housing options to the mix!

Find tons of shops and eats all in one place by visiting La Centerra, home to upscale shopping and favorite restaurants like Snooze, Dish Society, Bar Louie, and Alamo Drafthouse. Walk across the street to Willow Fork Park to stroll around the public green space or play an 18-hole round of disc golf (BYOD — bring your own disc!) When it comes time to escape the summer heat, be sure to visit Katy’s very own water park Typhoon Texas right across from the outlets at Katy Mills Mall. Playing on its rice field roots, the city hosts an annual Katy Rice Festival with craft vendors, live music, food trucks, and more.
