What it’s like
The place. Morgans Point is a very small city in Harris County, on the water near the San Jacinto River. Homes here are valued well above what is typical across the county, and the household incomes quoted for Harris County sit at a middling level for the state. Winters are mild, with cool days and chilly nights and little or no snow, while summers turn hot, and a good deal of rain falls over the course of a year.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, in professional and business services, in shops and in the building trades. Right in town, the biggest workplaces are tied to the port, among them Texas Stevedoring Services, Cooper Ports America and Integrated Power Services Houston Service Center. Unemployment across Harris County is unchanged from a year earlier, the county has added a few more jobs, and some residents work from home, while the typical commute is a fairly short one.
Things to do. The San Jacinto River runs in or beside town, and Buffalo Bayou is a short drive away. For a day out, Houston is a longer drive: the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston is one of the area's best-known museums, and Space Center Houston is another museum worth the trip. Reliant Stadium is also a longer drive away, for those who like to see a game.
