Description

West Memorial Katy is located on the east side of Katy in Fort Bend County…close to I10 and the Energy Corridor.

Primarily built in the 1970s, most of the 1100+ homes (approx.) in this neighborhood are one-story Ranch homes. On average, these homes have 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and approximately 1800sf with 2-car garages, and a median lot size of 8000sf. This is an older neighborhood, so most of the homes need to be updated/remodeled.

West Memorial Katy features a community “civic center,” a playground, and swimming pool.
