Energy Corridor

With major names such as Shell, Citgo, BP, and ConocoPhillips among its corporate residents, Houston’s Energy Corridor poses a smart choice for apartment hunters working in oil and gas or commuters looking for abundant freeway access. The area lies between Houston and Katy and extends south from roughly Interstate 10 to Briar Forest Drive. Highway 6 runs right through it, with Beltway 8 just to the east, for convenient travel north or south. In your downtime you can enjoy one of several parks in the vicinity, including George Bush Park and Bear Creek Park.
