What it’s like
The place. Patton is a small community in Montgomery County, Texas, where most homes across the county are lived in by their owners. Winters are cool and summers are hot, and rain falls heavily through much of the year. Many neighbors have lived here for years, and the county's mix of housing and incomes gives it a settled feel.
Work. Residents across the county work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, professional and business services, shops, and the building trades. Jobs grew across the county over the past year, while unemployment edged up slightly. Commuting is a regular part of life, since relatively few people work from home.
Things to do. Lake Conroe, a reservoir, is a short drive away and suits boating and fishing. The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion, a theatre, is also a short drive away for concerts and shows. Sam Houston National Forest, a protected area, lies a longer drive off and offers quiet woodland walks.
