Hedwig Village TX Neighborhood Guide
Hedwig Village is the second smallest among the Memorial Villages at only 0.9 square miles.
The city has Katy Freeway (I-10) on the north, Hunters Creek on the east, and Piney Point and Bunker Hill to the south. Two other villages, Spring Valley and Hilshire, are located across the freeway, north of Hedwig.
Like most of the Memorial area, Hedwig Village’s early history dates back to the early 19th century when German settlers occupied the area.
Hedwig Jankowski Schroeder and her husband, Henry, were among these early residents. The German couple donated a part of their farm, on which Hedwig Road was built. The village was named after the said road.
During Houston’s suburban boom in the 1950s and 60s, Hedwig and the surrounding areas also underwent a development boom. Interest in the area had grown – in conjunction with the I-10’s construction – and several developments made headway in the area.
In December 1954, Hedwig Village was incorporated with a mayor-city council type of government. Hedwig and the other 5 villages had sought for incorporation to avoid Houston’s annexation and to preserve the area’s residential zoning.
Today, Hedwig elects its own mayor and coucil members, and though it allows for commercial establishments within its borders, the city does have a zoning ordinance in place.
The Village Fire Department, the Memorial Villages’ shared fire department, is located in Hedwig Village. The city operates its own police department.
All told, Hedwig Village is a mix of old ranch-style homes, new luxury custom-built homes, shopping centers, restaurants, award-winning schools, and stores.
