"Great place for young adults, couples and professionals"

Near the lavish area of Voss around Second Baptist Church, this area of Voss near Westheimer has everything a young adult or young professional could want. While the area south of Westheimer gets a little seedier, Burgoyne and the surrounding areas carry a number of apartment complexes, condominiums, and town homes. For the young professional, there is a Barnes and Noble on Westheimer that is perfect for studying or getting work done while not at the office. If you are looking for a good happy hour or place to eat, there are plenty of options including sushi, fast food, a number of ethnic restaurants and delicatessens. Here you are a mere 10 minutes from the Beltway and CityCentre, which has a number of nightlife activities for young adults. You are also 10 minutes from the Galleria and 15 minutes from any downtown destination. Plus, with a simple turn from your apartment complex, you have access to the myriad options on Westheimer for whatever might interest you, right at your fingertips. It being so close to a major intersection does present noise problems and there is construction near Burgoyne every day, which slows down traffic at peak hours. But, if you are willing to handle high-priced apartments or condos, a little traffic, a little noise and are unattached, you will love living in this area. It is perfect for young professionals and adults.
