Just west of downtown Houston on Memorial Drive and Allen Parkway you can find some of Houston's nicest apartments, including Bayou on the Bend, Left bank River Oaks and Jackson Hill, just to name a few.

One of the major attractions for this location is Memorial Park and its extensive biking, jogging and nature trails. Also, easy access to several major freeways and close proximity to downtown Houston Theater District. Also see Left Bank River Oaks.

Living downtown you'll be at center of everything, easy access to the major freeways and the Metro-rail will help you get to where you need to be, whether its work, school or play.

Located on the southwest edge of downtown Houston you'll find the close-knit community of Midtown, known for its trendy, young professional crowd.

Usually, the bars and restaurants that are within walking distance are full with vocal crowds of hungry office workers, recently home from a hard days work. On the weekends you'll find people walking their dogs, jogging, having a cup of coffee, sitting under a tree or just socializing with a friend.

Midtown was undiscovered a year or so ago, but no longer, now finding a 1 bedroom apartment  can be difficult, so start a bit early and you may just find yourself living in one of Houston's up and coming neighborhoods.

If shopping is your thing then Uptown may be the place you're looking for, located within minutes of The Galleria, the crown jewel of the Houston shopping scene, features hundreds of upscale department stores, such as Gucci, Armani Exchange and Versace, there's also a skating rink and a large selection of dining options.

A drive down Westheimer on the weekend can be an experience in itself, the nightlife is definitely happening, clubs and restaurants line both sides of this busy street for miles. Williams Tower, office buildings, high rise condos and apartments, make for a stunning skyline. Also see, Three Thousand Sage and The Phoenician

Home to NASA, Clear Lake is a bustling community with a large and varied population with a great deal of recreational opportunities, everything from sailing, jet ski, power boats,  nature walks, tons of restaurants and night clubs, etc, etc etc...there is a lot to do in Clear Lake.

There is no shortage of apartments, from the low end for students on a budget,  to high end for people with a bit more money to spend, you get a lot for your money, $800 to $1000 will get you a very nice one bedroom at an upscale complex, in Houston a comparable unit will be closer to $1200 to $1400.

About 20 miles south of downtown off Hwy IH-45 you'll find the cities of Friendswood and League City, both are ideal locations for access to Houston, Clear Lake and Galveston.

Friendswood Apartments

League City Apartments

South Houston Apartments

Head down Hwy 288 south towards the coast and you'll come to the city of Pearland, over the last few years its been one of the fastest growing cities in the Nation. Growth has slowed lately, there's just no more room left, the growth has moved further south to the little known town of Manvel, ask me about the new apartments that have recently sprung up in  Manvel.

There are not as many apartment complexes in Pearland as you would imagine,  ( most people live in one of the many new home communities, such as Shadow Creek Ranch or Silver Lake ), but the ones that are available are nice and within most peoples budget. See also, Cobblestone Park

The original master planned community, they are what other  communities strive to be. Located north of Houston The Woodlands has much to offer, a mega mall, a river walk,  the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion is home to concerts from major artist from around the world.

There is a extensive choice of apartments in The Woodlands, including some newly constructed complexes. Decent prices and much to do make the Woodlands a great choice for apartment living.

This is an important question for everyone but a difficult one to answer. Of course, the area of town plays a roll, but it basically comes down to the apartment complex itself, usually you get what you pay for.

I've found luxury high rise apartments have the best security, followed by the newer mid-rise communities, however, no property is completely safe.

Things to look for; security gate ( with guard ), high fences, video cameras throughout the property, gated garage, police living on property, clean and well kept, neighborhood or community watch.

A. Be aware of your surroundings, especially in parking lots and garages.
B. Carry a can of mace.
C. Be sure and have the locks changed on your apartment before you move in.
D. Always use the peep-hole when answering the door.
E. Never leave your doors, or windows un-locked, even for a short period of time.
F. Home security alarms are available for apartments, look into portable door/window alarms or a wireless home security system ( things you can take with you when you move ).
G. Buy renters insurance, just in case.
