My sister and her family lives here. Other than the fact it is located extreme North, it is a great place to live if you work nearby. There is an elementary (Greenwood Forest Elementary), middle (Wunderlich Intermediate School), and high school (Klein Forest High School) all within walking distance. The street borders a beautiful residential neighborhood. There is no shortage of shopping, restaurants, drugstores, grocery, video stores--you name it, it can be found on FM 1960. It is near Beltway 8, Bush Intercontinental Airport, 249 Parkway, and I-45. I personally prefer to live within the 610 loop, but for those who don't mind being farther removed, I would definitely recommend it!
