Hello All,

Am a new joiner. Am looking to purchase new or relatively new home in houston suburbs for under 200,000. Currently the only thing falling in this price range is in the rosenberg, katy and some parts of pearland. I have however seen cheaper housing in "NORTHSIDE VILLAGE". I wanted to know if anyone has heard about the safety of this area. Is this a high crime area? Am curious as to why prices are cheap, is there anyone who lives in this area.

property i have seen is in Ryon subdivision. Any and all information will be highly appreciated

[mod edit - cant post individual properties]

My relative lives in Grand Mission right off westpark toll way and new homes there are starting in the 170s. Nice area.

Northside V is extremely dangerous.

Agreed; it's a nice masterplanned community for the lower price range.

Also, you can still sometimes find <$200k in a few of the Sugar Land neighborhoods (Summerfield, Park Pointe, etc.) near the airport; but with the ballpark and all the development associated with Imperial happening nearby, that may not last a lot longer.

A couple of friends have moved into Northside in the last two years. It is mostly Hispanic families and a drive by the schools near the train reflects that. Not sure if they will stay once the kids get school age, but they like it now since its close to 'everything' and doesn't have the cost of living west of 45. I think that area and North of Main (W of 45) are going to be going up...

I should add, they both feel safe, but admit there seem to be some riff raff in the area, but are not bothered by it as they are not out at 3am nor involved with drugs. Also many young couple I know in the restaurant industry are renting there.
