About Kelliwood Court

In Kelliwood Court, the day-to-day rhythm is shaped by how close you are to Willow Fork Country Club and the web of nearby parks that make this pocket of Cinco Ranch feel tucked-in rather than sprawling. It’s the kind of area where a quick coffee run is genuinely quick, with a Starbucks about 0.6 miles away, and where weekend plans often start outdoors at Equestrian Village Park or Park Hollow Park before anyone thinks about driving across town.

This part of 77450 sits in the larger Cinco Ranch/Kelliwood orbit, surrounded by names locals recognize—Kelliwood Links, Kelliwood Pointe, and The Fairways at Kelliwood are all within a short hop. That cluster gives Kelliwood Court a defined identity: established streets, a strong ownership mindset, and a “stay awhile” feel that shows up in the ZIP area’s 68.8% homeownership rate. The housing market here reflects that stability, with an average home value of $361,400 in the surrounding ZIP.

Daily life is heavily influenced by Katy ISD campuses nearby, which is one reason buyers keep circling back to this section of Cinco Ranch. Joella Exley Elementary and Garland McMeans Junior High are each about 0.4 miles away and both carry A ratings, so school mornings can feel more like a neighborhood routine than a commute. A little farther out, Cinco Ranch High School sits around 2.2 miles away, another A-rated option that anchors the area’s long-term appeal.

The broader community profile adds context to who tends to put down roots here. With a median household income of $106,402 and a median age of 38.4 in the ZIP, the area skews toward working households balancing school schedules, commutes, and after-work routines. You see that in the everyday choices—picking up groceries at Kroger about 0.7 miles away or H-E-B around 1.5 miles away, then meeting friends at The Local Bar Katy roughly 1.1 miles from home.

Kelliwood Court fits neatly into the Cinco Ranch landscape as a low-drama, high-convenience pocket: close to trails, close to A-rated schools, and surrounded by familiar Kelliwood sections. It tends to draw people who want their weekends to include George Bush Park Hike & Bike Trails, their weeknights to include easy grocery runs, and their home life to feel settled rather than temporary.

What is the cost of living in Kelliwood Court?

Specific cost-of-living indices and Regional Price Parity (RPP) numbers weren’t provided for Kelliwood Court, so I can’t accurately compare local prices to the U.S. average using the 100-baseline framework for overall costs, housing, goods, or utilities. What we can say with certainty is that property taxes are a meaningful part of the monthly picture in Fort Bend County, and the county property tax rate provided is $0.8240 per $100 of assessed value. Applied to a $361,400 home value, that county-only portion is roughly $2,978 per year before exemptions, and it does not include additional taxing entities like school district rates or any local district assessments, which were not provided here, so a combined estimated rate can’t be calculated from the available data. On the income side, the median household income in the ZIP is $106,402, which helps many households absorb housing costs, and median gross rent is $1,746/month for those who rent. Day-to-day expenses often reflect the convenience of the Cinco Ranch area—multiple grocery options like Kroger, H-E-B, and ALDI nearby can help comparison shopping.
