      "New Caney has its safe places and it’s not so safe places. With a new development it has increasingly become more of a place that is safer rather than it used to be. New Caney has many different activities to do, but I will say that their schools may not be the best"
    • Leticia3016
      "We have food trucks and restaurants and community events. Many neighbors gather together for food and drinks "

      "Safe neighborhood with friendly neighbor, we love it, school is fairly good. Close ride to the highway. About 3 miles away from good plaza that has a lot of restaurants and business. "
    • Carla
      "We've lived in this neighborhood for 7 yrs and we love it. This is not the neighborhood for those that like cookie cutter style subdivisions with houses so close you can practically touch the next house from your window. Every house is unique, ranging from over $600k to as low as $75k, each with its' own unique style, whether it is awkward looking to traditional to beachy to contemporary or modern. Every house has at a minimum an acre or more, it is quiet, peaceful, like a getaway, yet close enough to the highway so quick access to everywhere else.

Seeing families walking, running, biking, rollerblading, golf carting, and ATVing throughout the day because it is safe. Whether passing in a car or on foot, everybody waves at each other. We are all racially diverse, every race and ethnicity represented, yet we are all the same that we like our community to remain small, our township government to stay small, and freedom to do what we want with our properties, whether it is to junk it up or keep it beautifully tighty. We want our "

    • Pamela L. M.
      "It’s an ok neighborhood. Folks seem friendly and kind when you meet on the street. Taxes have increased a lot in the last 3 years. "
    • Cheryl W.
      "This is the greatest area closest to Houston for work! Traffic flow is great, even with construction on the 59/69 and Grand Parkway 99. I wouldn't live anywhere else...and I was born & raised in Houston, Tx off of Ella Blvd. & 610. I have seen it all! This area is the place to be!"
    • Codersam
      "I have lived in this area for 30 years and it DEFINATELY is not a poor area. There are sections in New Caney that are, however the Woodway Forest sub division is a great place to live. I have NEVER had any issues in this area and have NEVER been flooded. Just take a drive around the area and see for your self. You people shouldn't talk about what you don't know about! GIVE ME A BREAK!"
