Clear Lake Texas Properties

Clear Lake real estate area is known as a community that is home to NASA Johnson Space Center , as well as the third largest boating center in the United States, Clear Lake has a great deal of homes for sale to offer. Clear Lake describes an area and communities built near the bay water that empties into the Gulf of Mexico. It lies about halfway between downtown Houston and Galveston on I-45 South. The city of Houston annexed Clear Lake City in 1976. But eight surrounding communities comprise the area: Clear Lake Shores , El Lago , Kemah , League City , Nassau Bay , Seabrook , Taylor Lake Village and Webster . The population of Clear Lake and the eight townships totals approximately 156,000.

Clear Lake originally was a fishing and agricultural community. NASA's decision in the 1960s to locate the Johnson Space Center there gave a strong impetus to the area's development and increased demand for Clear Lake real estate. Today, aerospace related companies employ about 27 percent of the area's population. Contributing significantly to the area's economy also are the petrochemical and computer industries.

For those who like planned-community living, Friendswood Development Co. has created more than 10 single-family subdivisions.

 

Generally, ages of homes range from brand new to 25 years old. New construction is constant. Purchase prices for single family homes span from $80,000 to $600,000, with some custom homes even higher. The apartment and townhome rental properties are thriving with occupancy rates close to 100 percent. The high demand has recently created a shortage of available units, creating waiting lists in some cases. Newcomers who need short-term interim housing, however, will find it available through suite hotels and corporate apartment rental companies. The high demand also created great market for multi-family homes and condos. High-flying types will appreciate Hobby Airport just 10 miles away. Even non-flyers will occasionally have the chance to greet astronauts or U.S. presidents and other VIPs as they wing in to Ellington Field.
