Area Overview
What makes Kingwood different
Kingwood was developed in the 1970s as one of Houston's first master-planned communities. Today it spans over 14,000 acres with more than 500 acres of dedicated parkland, 75 miles of connected trails, and a canopy of mature pine and oak trees that give the area its nickname.
The 77345 ZIP code sits on the community's east side, near Lake Houston and the Kingwood Country Club. Homes here range from early-1990s builds in neighborhoods like Woodstream and Mills Creek Village to newer construction. The area is served by Humble Independent School District, consistently rated above average for the Houston metro.
Kingwood is connected to downtown Houston via US-59 (I-69), with a typical commute of 35 to 50 minutes. The Hardy Toll Road and the Kingwood Park-and-Ride provide additional options. George Bush Intercontinental Airport is approximately 20 minutes south.
