"From low class to high class"

Spring Branch East is conveniently located just North of Interstate 10, South of Hwy 290, and just West of Loop 610. This highly populated Hispanic area provides an easy commute to most regions in North, West, and Central Houston. Main streets traveled in the area include Hempstead Road, Long Point Road, and Westview Road. Since the Spring Branch East area offers convenient access to so many nearby freeways, there are many options for dining, entertainment, and recreation.

Real estate in the Spring Branch East area ranges drastically, so much depends on the actual street you visit. You can find new construction as well as very dated single family homes and apartments to parcels of land and commercial buildings. The prices of real estate vary from affordable to upscale depending on the section of Spring Branch. You can find various strip center thrift shops and corner stores as well as fast food joints, taco stands, and cafes, but you won’t see many upscale restaurants – for that you will have to travel a few miles to I-10 or 290. Spring Branch Medical Center is located in close proximity, and the large Spring Lake Pond is near the center of the community.

"Divercity"

This area is pretty diverse. My friend works for Re/Max off Wirt and Westview. This part of the neighborhood is very green, clean and expensive. The houses are pretty large along this stretch of road and this stretches back a few streets. As you push farther back into the neighborhood though, the houses get smaller, more affordable and the area also gets a little dirtier. The storefronts start to take a dive, but this does not necessarily mean there is a complete swan dive into neighborhood despair. Respect and cordial affairs between neighbors is nearly guaranteed. There is great shopping to the east, and right off Antoine there is IKEA and MarqE, an entertainment center including a theater, the Improv, excellent restaurants and plenty of opportunities for kids to find something to want to do all the time. Also, I-10 is the southern border of Spring Branch East, which will take you downtown, to Katy or anywhere else in Houston for that matter. 610 is just a little farther east and can bring you to the Galleria or to just south of Downtown Houston. Also, 290 forms the eastern border of the neighborhood, which can take you west to Austin, north to other shopping venues or many other Houston attractions. This neighborhood is situated in a great location, right at the heart of the city, perfect for any opportunity.
