Flooding Information on The Woodlands Neighborhoods
If you're looking to buy a home in Houston that is at lower risk of flooding, we can definitely help you. We've done the research into the areas that did and did not flood. Email Paige@HoustonProperties.com for recommendations.
Most areas in The Woodlands are located away from floodplains and experience no flooding, but some villages, especially those situated along Spring Creek and Panther Branch, have flooded during Hurricane Harvey.
In Creekside Park, previous builders who planned poorly have constructed homes with inadequate elevations over a 500-year flood plain, causing around 100 homes in the Timarron and Timarron Lakes subdivisions to be inundated by Hurricane Harvey.
Some areas situated near creeks in the villages of Cochran’s Crossing and Indian Springs are also vulnerable to flooding.
The Woodlands Township board has established an active task force to tackle drainage issues and avoid further flooding. Following Hurricane Harvey, the board has coordinated with state and national leaders to assist in flood mitigation.
If you’re looking at specific homes or buildings and want to confirm if the property is in a flood zone, please email the Houston Properties Team.
