The Trees. The abundant towering pines and majestic oaks that provide havens for birds, squirrels and other wildlife are also the number one reason why people live here.  Resident Holley Barker likes all the trees because they give her "lots of energy and oxygen."  One visiting journalist nicknamed The Woodlands "The Invisible City."  Believe it or not, there's a thriving, vital community behind those trees.  

Home Sweet Home. You can choose a new home in The Woodlands priced from the $90's to $1 million or more. You'll find many fine choices of traditional single-family homes, patio homes and townhomes in many neighborhoods. 

Community Pride. When residents talk about The Woodlands, they beam. Residents are proud of the quality of life in their hometown, and work as volunteers to preserve it. 

Convenience. You can shop, make that dental appointment, take the kids to soccer practice, go to your aerobics class, take in a concert and do any number of other things without leaving y our own hometown. 

Hike and Bike Paths. More than 80 miles of pathways link neighborhoods, churches, schools, parks and shopping centers. You'll find an interesting (sometimes amusing) assortment of roller blades, strollers, bikes, tricycles and plain ol' feet. 

The Hardy Toll Road. Aficionados of  "The Hardy" say it's the only way to go to Houston's Theater District, Intercontinental Airport and the rest of Houston.  That is, when you really need to leave The Woodlands. 

Neighborhood Parks. Everybody has a favorite park and a special reason they'd never give it up.  The frog at Falconwing Park, the tower at Southshore Park, the waterfall at Mystic Lake - these are a few of our residents' favorite things. 
 

 Deed Restrictions. Deed restrictions, set forth in The Woodlands Covenants, help keep up your neighborhood. Your neighbor can't paint his home purple and pink or raise goats in the backyard. And no RV's are allowed permanent residence in driveways. 

Library. You'll want to become familiar with the South County Branch of the Montgomery County Library, located in The Woodlands Town Center near the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion. 

Clean Streets. Along the pristine roadways and well maintained pathways, visitors will enjoy the beauty of wildflowers, not litter. Please do your part. Don't litter. Thanks.   

Wildflowers. Each spring, wildflowers planted along the roadways create a glorious riot of color. Shutterbug camera shop owner Lon Larsen always knows when spring's arrived because orders for film processing pick up as residents bring in their shots of beautiful wildflowers. 

Religious Congregations.  Many religious faiths are represented here, and spiritual support reaches out to residents of the community in times of need. Easter Sunday services at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion, bar mitzvahs and  holiday services are enthusiastically attended. 

The John Cooper School.  If a private, college preparatory school is your preference, examine The John Cooper School's offerings for grades K through 12. You'll like what you see. 

Glorious Golf. Four championship golf courses including the Palmer Golf Course and the Tournament Players Course, home of the annual Shell Houston Open PGA event, offer a variety of challenges to golfers. The Texas Golf Hall of Fame is located here. And if you like to live on the golf course, there are homes with great golf views.
