Fun Facts About Sugar Land

Sugar Land didn't get its name by accident — this city used to be home to Imperial Sugar's massive refinery, and the sweet legacy lives on in the street names, the history, and honestly, in the way people feel about living here. Once you move to Sugar Land, you tend to stay. The city consistently ranks among the safest and most livable in America, which makes for a very satisfied (and very vocal) population of homeowners.

First Colony, New Territory, Riverstone, and Greatwood are household names among Houston-area buyers — each with its own personality, amenities, and price range.

And with Fort Bend ISD's top-rated schools serving most of Sugar Land, families don't have to choose between great neighborhoods and great education.

The job market here is no slouch either.
