Houston, TX
Where Global Impact Meets Southern Power
In Houston, power isn’t just built it’s lived. The fourth largest city in the nation and the beating heart of the South. This is where 21st-century innovation meets Southern strength. With a population of over 2.3 million residents and a metro reach of nearly 8 million across 10 counties, Houston isn’t just a city, it’s a global player.
Strategic Access. Unmatched Connectivity.
Houston is powered by a world-class transportation network. The city is served by three major airports:
- George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) – One of the top 10 busiest in the U.S., with nonstop access to major cities across the globe.
- William P. Hobby Airport (HOU) – Recognized as North America’s first 5-Star Airport, now offering international flights with luxury convenience.
- Ellington Field – A critical hub for NASA, military, and commercial spaceflight activity.
From Houston, you’re just:
- 165 miles from Austin, the state capital
- 197 miles from San Antonio, known for its heritage and the River Walk
- 239 miles from Dallas, a major business and cultural hub
- Galveston Beach – A historic island getaway with vibrant dining, resorts, and events
- Surfside Beach – A more relaxed coastal escape known for its peaceful shoreline and local charm
Global Healthcare Capital
Houston is home to the Texas Medical Center, the largest medical complex in the world. With 49 member institutions, 13 hospitals, and top-tier institutions like MD Anderson, Texas Children’s, Houston Methodist, and Baylor College of Medicine, the city leads in research, treatment, and innovation. Over 120,000 medical professionals make their mark here.
Education at Every Level
Houston ISD is the largest school district in Texas, serving as a hub for magnet, charter, and specialty programs. The metro hosts over 300 private schools and some of the nation’s top universities, including:
- Rice University
- University of Houston (Main, Downtown, and Clear Lake campuses)
- Texas Southern University
- Baylor College of Medicine
- South Texas College of Law
Master-Planned Movement
Houston is built for momentum. Major freeways I-10, I-45, I-69/US-59, 610 Loop, Beltway 8, SH-99, and SH-288 keep people and commerce moving. METRO’s park-and-ride, light rail, and high-occupancy vehicle lanes connect the city with over 275,000 riders daily.
Culture, Power, and Personality
Nicknamed the Bayou City and the Culinary Capital of the South, Houston delivers an unmatched lifestyle. With 337 parks and over 56,000 acres of green space, the city blends nature with innovation. Explore iconic spaces like Buffalo Bayou Park, Discovery Green, and the Houston Zoo, or the Museum District, one of the most visited cultural zones in the country. When it comes to signature experiences, nothing compares to the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo, the largest of its kind in the world. For three weeks each year, the city transforms into a celebration of music, livestock, fashion, and food. From major concerts and championship bull riding to luxury auctions and carnival rides, the Rodeo is where Houston’s bold spirit takes center stage. Other standout events include the Art Car Parade, Pride Houston, Bayou City Art Festival, and international celebrations that reflect the city’s unparalleled diversity.
The Most Diverse City in America
Houston is the most ethnically diverse metro in the U.S., with one in four residents born outside the country. The result? A rich blend of languages, cuisines, traditions, and perspectives that fuel global commerce and local community.
