Super Neighborhood # 81 - Clear Lake

Your super neighborhood at-a-glance:

Clear Lake lies in the southeastern most portion of the City of Houston. Before NASA’s Manned Spacecraft Center was built in the early 1960s, it was largely coastal prairie used for ranching. Today, the area includes the master planned community of Clear Lake City, the adjacent communities of Pipers Meadow and Sterling Knoll, and the Baybrook Mall retail center. Clear Lake City is home to numerous aeronautics contractors attracted by NASA. New home construction continues in the northern part of Clear Lake City; however, the northern and western edges of the area are undeveloped because of traffic patterns at Ellington Field and a nearby oil field.
