  1. I notice that there are 100s of acres owned by WOC right on 2978. I hope that its not going to be a slew of apartments and strip malls. But what else would pop up next to a Walmart?

    Does anyone know the furture plans for these area. All the signs just say "mixed commercial"........we have a lot of those signs back here in Sterling Ridge. :(

  2. Ok, I moved to the Woodlands a few months ago from the Galleria area, and the Tanglewood subdivision. We had trash pickup TWICE a week and Patrol cars constantly cruising the neighborhood, the streets were clean and the builders had ordinances to follow. I have yet to see ONE patrol back here in the back of Sterling Ridge and the builders act like its the wild west and there is trash everywhere.

    I for one would love to see this place taken over by Houston. I never had a problem with The City of Houston Water Supply, and frankly see no point paying 3,000 a year to the MUD district for water. Your police situation wouldn't change but the fire may become non-volunteer...........and that's not a bad thing.

    Hedwig, Bunker Hill and Piney Point Villages were all taken over by Houston decades ago. They have retained their building codes, police and associations. And association fees are a flat fee and not treated like a tax on the wealthy.

    What may actually happen here, if annexation occurs, is that the operating company would no long be allowed to act like the mafia, and that may be a good thing. Placing a Walmart next to multi-million dollar homes was a BRILLIANT idea. Not to mention the multitude of apartments they have decided to start building. As a resident, I would be more concerned about the Operating Company changing this place into urban trash, rather than the city of Houston. Seems they are failing to follow their own building codes.

    Don't get me wrong, I love the schools out here and the amount of house you get for your money. But I haven't had to work so hard to live somewhere in my life. The minute we are done with the "child period" of our lives, we are moving back.
