BP Relocating 4000 from Chicago to Houston....3200 Request Katy!
Oil and energy giant BP is in the process of relocating about 4000 people from the Chicago area to the Houston area. Prudential Gary Greene Realtors will be handling the relocation on the Houston end. Of the 4000 people relocating, 3200 have directly requested the Katy area. Katy is a favorite of oil and energy employees who work in the Houston Energy Corridor because of its close proximity (just west on I-10), the wonderful award wining KISD School District, the great medical facilities and hospitals that have the Katy area being dubbed...Med Center West, and the three area malls that include wonderful shopping and dining options. Katy has long been known as Kids Town USA because of the amenities offered at the large number of Master Planned Communities that reside in The Katy area south of I-10. These communities are Cinco Ranch, Grand Lakes, Seven Meadows, Kelliwood, Westheimer Lakes North, Green Trails, Nottingham Country, Windsor Park and Windsor Park Lakes. Amenities like pools, water parks, jogging and biking trails, golf, pocket parks, and a host of other activities make it a great place to live, work, and play. The nearby Gulf of Mexico beaches and the Texas Hill Country to the west make for great weekend fun time!
