katy or sugarland

There are several good parks in Sugar Land. My wife goes and runs at the Oyster Creek park near our house, and while it may not be the prettiest park, it is full of people running, playing, exercising, doing yoga, and there are always several kids there.

I live in the Highlands subdivision in SL, and there are a ton of kids in my neighborhood.

Thanks to everyone else for the info.

We will continue to look at neighborhoods in S. Katy and SL. Someone suggested the subdivision Memorial Pkwy. in Katy. I looked online at some of the rentals in MP. It appears to be an older neighborhood.

Will I find families with young children in this neighborhood (I don't mean a "sprinkle" here and there) but a good amt.?


Do people there take advantage of the parks alot( I would imagine so)? It would be nice to meet mothers with their kids in the parks too, just in case we do not meet many in the neighborhood. We love to go to the parks and the pool as much as we can.


Do you find most of the families that you do meet in the parks (S. Katy and SL) to be pretty friendly?

There are TONS of good parks in South Katy, and yes they are heavily utilized. Yes, families are very friendly. However I prefer meeting other moms through the various mom's clubs around town...there are TONS of them. Multiple MOPS groups, Mom's Club, Moxie Moms, All Moms of Katy...the list goes on and on. Events of all types, groups of all sizes. Playdates a plenty

That is helpful! We homeschool, so we definitely want to find others to continue to hang out with.

Also, West Memorial - if you are considering Memorial Parkway. The homes ARE older, and smaller, which means you have young families there.

Where is West Memorial? I tried to find homes for rent there on har.com.

Thanks.
