Moving to Kingwood

If you are considering a move after a divorce or major life change, Kingwood—an established community northeast of Houston—can offer a compelling combination of suburban amenities and access to the city.

Why Move to Kingwood?

Kingwood lies along the US 59/I-69 corridor, offering direct access into downtown Houston and convenient links to surrounding communities. Known for its wooded neighborhoods, greenbelt systems, and family-oriented layout, the area offers something of a “town within a city” feel.

With numerous residential neighborhoods, community amenities, parks, and recreation areas centered around Lake Houston and the San Jacinto River, Kingwood provides a strong backdrop for families, single parents, and individuals navigating new housing or custody-related transitions.

What to Keep in Mind

• Driving remains the most common way to get around; having a vehicle gives the most flexibility for work, legal appointments, and daily life.
• While Kingwood offers many local amenities, access to major medical centers, specialty services, or downtown attraction may involve longer commute times—so check travel distances, traffic patterns, and whether the neighborhood meets your family’s logistical needs.
• Schools, community resources, and neighborhood dynamics can vary widely between sectors—take the time to explore and vet the options that suit your family’s priorities.
