The Texans' practice facility sits at 8799 Kirby Dr, immediately adjacent to NRG Park and a short hop from the Texas Medical Center, West University, and Rice Village. For a high-net-worth player, the smart radius is the leafy Inner Loop pocket west of Kirby: gated estates and discreet high-rises within 10-20 minutes of the locker room, world-class hospitals next door, and River Oaks dining a quick drive north.
An incorporated city-within-the-city of quiet, manicured streets, its own police force, and some of Houston's best-rated schools, minutes from the facility.
Houston's oldest and most affluent neighborhood, with gated 1920s estates, deep lots, and mature oaks shielding homes from the street.
A tidy independent city of new-build and remodeled homes, served by top-performing schools including National Blue Ribbon campuses.
Stately pre-war homes on boulevard-style streets between Rice University and the Medical Center, walkable to Rice Village.
The neighborhoods above sit inside a twenty-minute drive of Houston Methodist Training Center. But many athletes prioritize lifestyle, privacy, and prestige over commute — these are the areas across Houston where athletes most often buy and rent, even though they’re a longer drive from the facility.
Houston's most prestigious neighborhood, a canopy of live oaks sheltering River Oaks Country Club and mansions held by oil barons, business leaders, and national celebrities. Gated drives, deep setbacks, and a private patrol give an estate feel just minutes from downtown.
A cluster of independently incorporated villages west of downtown, defined by wooded acre-plus lots, custom estates, and their own private police departments. Piney Point holds some of the most expensive real estate in Texas.
A 24-hour manned-gate enclave inside the master-planned Woodlands, built around a Jack Nicklaus Signature course and a Tom Fazio championship layout. Custom estates sit on wooded lots within one of the country's top-rated planned communities.
A guard-gated community wrapped around Sweetwater Country Club in Sugar Land, the affluent master-planned suburb southwest of Houston. Home to mega-estates on large lots, including the 24,000-square-foot castle Tracy McGrady built.
