Hyde Park Houston Neighborhood Guide
Hyde Park is a mostly residential, deed-restricted community located within the west-central area of Neartown/Montrose. It is roughly defined as the area south of Gray Street, west of Montrose Boulevard, north of Westheimer Road, and east of Shepherd Drive.
Hyde Park residents enjoy easy access to other Inner Loop areas, as Montrose is considered one of the most accessible neighborhoods in Houston.
Nearby neighborhoods include River Oaks, Upper Kirby, Midtown, Downtown Houston, Rice Military/Washington Avenue, Museum District, and Medical Center.
One of the oldest neighborhoods in Houston, Hyde Park was established in 1893 and was later annexed into the City of Houston.
Development in the area, like in most Inner Loop neighborhoods, was driven by demand. During the 70s, the Montrose/Neartown area drew in the creative crowd, particularly due to the neighborhood’s proximity to Houston’s cultural centers.
Hyde Parks’s wide variety of homes and affordable real estate were also major factors that contributed to the neighborhood’s popularity during this period.
Today, the neighborhood remains popular – though the market for Hyde Park homes for sale has shifted more toward those working in Downtown and Medical Center. Like Midtown and other Montrose subdivisions, tearing down or updating old homes is a trend apparent in the neighborhood. New construction is a common sight in the area – and like in neighboring communities, new development is driving prices up.
Still, Hyde Park single-family homes, townhomes, and condos are relatively affordable. Home prices depend on a number of factors, including size and age of the home and location.
Hyde Park is within the 77006 and 77019 zip code of Harris County.
