Katy, Texas is a growing city on the western edge of Greater Houston, set where Harris, Fort Bend, and Waller counties meet. It began as a railroad stop and rice farming town, and today greater Katy also takes in communities like Cinco Ranch, Grand Lakes, and Seven Meadows, south of its historic downtown.
Typhoon Texas Waterpark is a summer favorite for families, and Katy Mills draws shoppers from across the region. Mary Jo Peckham Park offers 32 acres of green space with an aquatic center and a miniature golf course.
For history, Katy Heritage Park is home to five historic Katy structures and a bandstand, cared for by the Katy Heritage Society.
