Cypress Meadows, Where Coles Crossing Energy Meets Jersey Village Convenience

About Cypress Meadows

Saturday mornings in Cypress Meadows often start with a quick loop through Bud Hadfield Park, just a few minutes away, before the errands kick in at the nearby H-E-B. It’s the kind of routine that feels very Cypress-area: parks stitched into the week, big-name grocery options close by, and plenty of neighborhood pockets like Coles Mill Park, Telge Park, and Coles Pond Park that keep the area outdoorsy without needing a long drive.

The neighborhood sits in the 77429 ZIP code, surrounded by familiar names locals recognize—Cypress Point Estates a short hop away, Coles Crossing close enough that its park-and-pool culture spills into daily life, and established pockets like Enchanted Valley and Park Forest nearby. That setting shapes Cypress Meadows’ feel: residential and settled, but plugged into the busiest parts of the northwest Houston suburbs, where you’re never far from school campuses, recreation centers, and the errands that actually make life run.

Homes here track closely with the area’s $369,000 average home value, which lines up with what many buyers expect in this part of Harris County when they want a neighborhood with strong school options and a more owner-occupied profile. In the broader ZIP, about 81.2% of households own rather than rent, and that shows up in how people treat the place—lawns and weekend projects, neighbors who know each other’s routines, and a generally consistent streetscape.

The demographic profile around Cypress Meadows reads like a modern northwest-suburb snapshot, with a median age of 37.4 and a meaningful share of households balancing school schedules and work flexibility.

Cypress Meadows tends to draw people who want their week to feel efficient: parks like Coles Commons and The Grove Park for a quick reset, A-rated campuses such as Sampson El and Spillane Middle within a short drive, and enough nearby shopping—Kroger, Walmart Neighborhood Market, and Walmart Supercenter—to keep the to-do list from turning into an all-day project.

What is the cost of living in Cypress Meadows?

A full cost-of-living breakdown isn’t possible from the information provided because no cost-of-living indices or Regional Price Parity (RPP) numbers are included here. (RPP is often used to compare local prices to the U.S. average where 100 equals the national average, and separate figures may exist for overall costs, housing, goods, and utilities, but those values weren’t provided.) What we can quantify is property tax rates. In Cypress Meadows, the city property tax rate is $0.8146 per $100 of assessed value and the county property tax rate is $0.3810 per $100. Combined, that’s an estimated $1.1956 per $100 valuation for just the city and county portions, before adding any school district or special district rates, which weren’t provided in the data. On a $369,000 home, those two pieces alone can be a meaningful part of the monthly budget. On the income side, the 77429 area’s median household income is $119,191, which can help offset housing costs for many buyers.
