Why Live in Independence Heights

Independence Heights in Houston is a neighborhood rich in history and evolving with modern developments. Originally incorporated in 1915 as the first African American municipality in Texas, it was annexed by Houston in 1929. The area features a mix of historic bungalow homes and newly constructed modern townhouses, reflecting ongoing redevelopment. McCullough Park, a historic site, remains a community hub, hosting events like the annual Juneteenth celebration. Independence Heights Park offers amenities such as a pool, playground, and community center.
