Welcome to Spring Branch
Peaceful living in a culturally rich Houston community.
One of Houston’s largest suburban neighborhoods, Spring Branch is a friendly, family-oriented community with a multicultural flair. With access to daily conveniences like grocery stores and dry cleaners, a wide expanse of green spaces, and a top-notch school system, this is the perfect place for families to call home.
Even older than the city of Houston, Spring Branch was founded in 1830 by German immigrant Karl Kolbe and began as nothing but a log cabin, a stream, and lots of trees. Flash-forward to the 1950s and Spring Branch had become a suburbanite paradise with ranch-style homes and all the amenities of big-city living.
Today, this peaceful enclave is known for authentic Korean, Vietnamese, Polish and Mexican cuisine, and a laid-back lifestyle.
