Towne Lake is under a larger neighborhood, Cypress. In the 1980s, Cypress, the rural area, was developed and transformed into one of the largest suburban communities in Houston.

The first settlers in the area were Atakapa and Akokisa Indian tribes. Soon after, in the 1840s, they disappeared due to European settlers appearing in the area.
