Everything’s Bigger in Texas

Life in Texas

Texas is the biggest state in the nation—giving you plenty of room to roam and explore the great things that the Lone Star State has to offer. It’s rarely cold in Texas, so outdoor activities like golf, tennis, swimming, and running can be enjoyed year-round. The warm weather makes a new home in Texas ideal for sports fans—and there are quite a few sports fans in Texas! Whether you’re playing football or cheering from the sidelines, the game is just more fun when the sun is shining. Texas is also known for its relatively low cost of living—and when you pair that with a strong job market and no personal state income tax, you’ll get quite the bang for your buck, which is just part of the reason families are seeking new homes for sale from established home builders in Texas. Everything’s bigger in Texas—so bring your Texas-sized appetite and enjoy some of the best barbecue, Tex Mex, and pecan pie (the official state dessert) in the country. It’s sure to be served with a side of Southern hospitality, another Texas specialty.

Does a new home in Texas sound like a great fit for you? What are you waiting for? Come explore the stunning new homes from home builder Shea Homes in the Houston AreaLearn more about the new homes for sale, available floorplans, amenities and more by scheduling a tour at one of our communities today!

Frequently Asked Questions: Living in Texas

Why are homebuyers choosing Texas for new construction?

Texas has no state income tax, a cost of living below most comparable metros, and an economy that has grown well beyond its energy roots. Technology, healthcare, aerospace, and financial services have all expanded here over the past decade, and that depth keeps drawing relocation from California and other high-cost states. For buyers weighing where their budget may go further without giving up career options or city access, Texas tends to make a strong case.

Where does Shea Homes® build in Texas?

Shea Homes® builds across the greater Houston area, with communities in Conroe, Montgomery, Magnolia, Hockley, Missouri City, Manvel, and League City. That covers a lot of ground, and the areas feel different from one another. Wildtree™ in Montgomery and Woodhavyn in Magnolia sit north of the city near Lake Conroe and Sam Houston National Forest. Sienna® in Missouri City and Del Bello Lakes® and Meridiana in Manvel anchor the growing suburbs south and southwest of Houston. Legacy in League City puts buyers near NASA and the Clear Lake waterfront. Conroe is home to the Evergreen™ master plan, which includes both all-ages homes and Trilogy® Evergreen™, a 55+ community

What is it like living in Texas?

Texas is a big state, and daily life shifts a lot depending on where you land. In the Houston area, you get a major international city close at hand, with professional sports, a strong dining and arts scene, and one of the broadest economies in the country. Head north toward Conroe, Montgomery, and Magnolia and the pace eases, the lots grow, and Lake Conroe and Sam Houston National Forest become part of the weekend. Closer to the coast around League City, the water takes over, with Clear Lake, Galveston Bay, and the Kemah Boardwalk minutes away. Low taxes, a warm climate, and steady job growth have kept the state near the top of relocation lists for years.

What outdoor recreation is available in Texas?

Outdoor options vary depending on where you are in the Houston area. North of the city, Lake Conroe offers year-round boating, fishing, and kayaking, and Sam Houston National Forest has miles of trails for hiking and mountain biking. Toward the coast, League City and the Clear Lake area put boating and waterfront life at your doorstep, and Galveston Island beaches are a short drive. Farther out, Hill Country, Big Bend National Park, and Padre Island are all within reach for a long weekend.

What are the major employers in Texas?

Texas has one of the widest-ranging employer bases in the country. Houston anchors the energy sector, while the Texas Medical Center, the largest medical complex in the world, drives a large healthcare workforce. NASA Johnson Space Center near Clear Lake and the port and logistics operations along the Ship Channel add to the mix. North of the city, The Woodlands has grown into a major corporate hub with campuses like ExxonMobil. Across the broader state, Austin draws technology and semiconductor names and Dallas-Fort Worth supports a large financial and corporate presence.

What types of new construction homes does Shea Homes® offer in Texas?

Shea Homes builds single-family detached homes across the Houston area, at a wide range of sizes and price points. Master-planned communities include Evergreen in Conroe, Wildtree in Montgomery, Woodhavyn in Magnolia, Sienna in Missouri City, Meridiana and Del Bello Lakes in Manvel, Legacy in League City, and The Grand Prairie in Hockley. Floorplans run from roughly 1,500 square feet to more than 4,800, with several homesite widths depending on the community. Every Shea home includes SheaConnect®. Shea also builds Trilogy Evergreen, a 55+ community within the Evergreen master plan in Conroe.

How does Texas compare to other states for homebuyers?

Texas consistently draws buyers from California, the Pacific Northwest, and the Northeast who are weighing total cost of ownership, not just sticker price. There is no state income tax, though property taxes run higher than in some states, so it is worth looking at the full picture. Even so, a broad job market and a lower overall cost of living make the math work for many buyers. Next to other Sun Belt states, Texas offers larger, more established metro infrastructure and a wider spread of options, from urban cores to master-planned suburbs.

What should out-of-state buyers know before purchasing a new construction home in Texas?

Texas has no state income tax, which shifts the affordability math for anyone relocating from a state that taxes income heavily. Property tax rates here tend to run higher than in some states, so factor that into the total cost, not just the purchase price. For buyers looking at the Houston area specifically, the metro is spread out, so narrowing down by commute corridor before you tour communities saves real time. Shea’s New Home Advisors can walk you through current availability, floorplans, and Quick Move-In homes across the Houston-area communities.
