About this map

The sprawling residential expansion of western Harris County is captured in this 2013 survey, showcasing the dense network of subdivisions that define modern Katy. Distinctive neighborhoods like Williamsburg Colony, Williamsburg Hamlet, and Cimarron South illustrate the transition from rural prairie to suburban center. In the heart of this development, established sites like Magnolia Cem and the Hoffpauir Airport persist alongside newer master-planned communities such as Pin Oak Village and Heritage Meadows.

The landscape is naturally segmented by several watercourses, including Willow Fork, Buffalo Bayou, and Snake Creek, which wind through the grid of thoroughfares like Clay Rd and the Katy Fwy. North of the dense residential core, larger tracts and drainage features like Cane-Island Branch and S Mayde Cr indicate the remaining agricultural character of the region before its full conversion into the suburban landscape of the Greater Houston area.
