Johnson Development Corp. is building 3,000 single-family homes as part of its third master-planned community in the greater Houston area.
Cross Creek West is a 1,258-acre plot near FM 359 and Jordan Road just outside of Fulshear city limits, about 11 miles west of Katy. Johnson Development acquired the land in 2013, according to the Houston Business Journal.
Of the four communities that primarily make up Fulshear, Johnson is behind two of them, Jordan Ranch and Cross Creek Ranch, which opened in 2016.
“Fulshear is a popular and growing area that has excellent schools, abundant shopping and great access, thanks to the Westpark Tollway and Texas Heritage Parkway that opened last year,” Rob Bamford, general manager of Cross Creek West and Cross Creek Ranch, said in a statement. “We’ve seen a lot of success in that submarket and expect that demand to continue for Cross Creek West.”
Highland Homes and Perry Homes, which helped build Johnson’s developments, will return as builders on the Cross Creek West project. Bamford expects construction on the first of 410 homes to begin in the spring and for the first to be ready late this year. A recreation center and pool are set to open by spring 2023.
Fulshear’s median household income is $175,990, double that of the Houston metro area. With a population of 16,856 in April 2020, compared with 1,134 a decade earlier, the suburb is one of the fastest growing cities in the metro area, according data from the U.S. Census Bureau. Local experts predict the area will gain about 1,640 residents per year, on average, for the decade after 2019.
