Houston ZIP codes, mapped to real places.

Where the nine counties sit

Nine counties, one labeled map

Harris County sits in the middle. Montgomery is to the north, Liberty and Chambers to the east, Galveston and Brazoria along the coast, Fort Bend to the southwest, and Waller and Austin to the west. The lines are the official county boundaries, and the 252-row tables below stay the source for cities, school notes, and asking prices.

How the system works

What is the ZIP code for Houston, Texas?

Houston does not have one ZIP code. Greater Houston uses 252 U.S. postal codes across nine Texas counties. Downtown Houston is 77002. The codes mostly run in the 770xx, 772xx, 773xx, 774xx and 775xx ranges, and the U.S. Postal Service drew them to move mail efficiently. That is the entire design goal. They were never meant to describe neighborhoods, and they do not.

Three consequences matter if you are house-hunting:

ZIPs cross city lines. A single ZIP can contain parts of Houston, an incorporated suburb, and unincorporated county land at the same time. 77024 covers Houston plus Piney Point Village and Hunters Creek Village, three separate municipalities with their own governance.

ZIPs cross county lines. 37 of the 252 ZIPs here sit in more than one county. That changes which appraisal district assesses your home and which county you file a homestead exemption with. The table lists the primary county by land area and flags the others.

ZIPs cross school district lines constantly. This is the one that costs people the most. Two homes in the same ZIP can feed entirely different districts. Never buy on a ZIP-level school assumption.

By neighborhood

What ZIP code is my Houston neighborhood in?

Most Houston neighborhoods sit in more than one ZIP code. Neartown – Montrose spans 77006, 77019 and 77098, and the Greater Heights spans 77007, 77008 and 77009. The list below gives the ZIP codes that include part of each of Houston’s best-known neighborhoods, using the City of Houston’s official Super Neighborhood boundaries matched to Census ZIP areas.

What a ZIP code will not tell you

This is the honest limit of any ZIP code map, including this one. It narrows the search. It does not answer it.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions about Houston ZIP codes

How many ZIP codes does Houston have?

Greater Houston covers 252 ZIP codes across nine counties: Harris, Fort Bend, Montgomery, Galveston, Brazoria, Liberty, Austin, Chambers and Waller. How many of those count as “Houston” depends entirely on where you draw the line — city limits, inside the Beltway, or the whole metro — which is why this page lists all of them instead.

What are the ZIP codes for Houston, Texas?

Houston has no single ZIP code. The table on this page lists all 252 of them, across nine Texas counties. 77002 covers downtown Houston and is the one most often treated as the city’s central ZIP; it is a small downtown footprint, not a representative one.

Can one Houston ZIP code be in two counties?

Yes, and 37 of the 252 ZIPs here are. The table shows the primary county by land area and flags the others. It matters because your appraisal district, homestead exemption filing and county tax rate follow the parcel, not the ZIP.

Which Houston ZIP codes are the most expensive?

The highest price points cluster in the Inner Loop and the Memorial villages, particularly 77019, 77005, 77024 and 77027. Current medians are in the table above, sourced from Houston Association of REALTORS® MLS active listings and updated daily.

Do ZIP codes determine which school my child attends?

No. Attendance is set by the school district’s boundary for your specific address, and those boundaries cross ZIP lines regularly. Two homes in one ZIP can feed different elementary schools or different districts entirely. Always verify the exact address with the district. For the ZIP-level picture, see Houston ZIP codes by school district.

Does my ZIP code tell me if a home floods?

No. Flood risk follows FEMA flood zone, elevation and watershed, which do not track postal boundaries. Pull the FEMA flood zone for the individual address, and ask for the seller’s disclosure and any past claims history. For how the risk is distributed across the metro, see Houston flood zones by ZIP code.

Which Houston ZIP codes have the most MUDs?

77494 in Katy contains the most, with 36 Municipal Utility Districts, followed by the other fast-growth ZIPs around Katy, Cypress, Fulshear and the north corridor. Metro-wide there are more than 1,250 MUDs: 28 ZIPs have over half their land inside one, while 123 have none at all — mostly inside Houston city limits and the older incorporated suburbs. A MUD is not a red flag; it is a real line on the tax bill that belongs in the budget before you write the offer. Houston MUD districts by ZIP code maps every district, and the MUD tax guide explains how to find the rate for a specific parcel.

Why does the median list price differ from what I see on listing sites?

The figures here are median asking prices for homes actively on the market in that ZIP, from Houston Association of REALTORS® MLS, updated daily. Sold prices are different data and are not published here. If you want to know what a specific home is genuinely worth, that is a comparative market analysis, and I am glad to run one.

Are new ZIP codes still being added around Houston?

Occasionally. The Postal Service adjusts boundaries and adds codes as growth demands it, which happens most on the metro’s edges in Waller, Montgomery and Fort Bend counties. This page follows the U.S. Census 2020 ZCTA definitions.

The bottom line

Start with the ZIP, decide on the block

A ZIP code is a good first filter. It narrows 252 possibilities down to a handful worth looking at, and it is a fair way to compare price levels across the metro at a glance.

It is a bad last filter. The things that decide whether a specific house is right for you, the school it feeds, whether it flooded, what the MUD adds to the payment, what the street is like at 6pm on a Tuesday, all operate below the ZIP level. That is the part I help with.

If you have narrowed to two or three ZIPs and want to know what is actually different between them, Book a 30-minute call and we will go through them properly.

And if you would rather compare ZIP codes one measure at a time – flood exposure, MUD coverage, school-district structure, inventory or price – how to choose a Houston ZIP code sets all five out side by side.

And when you want to know where the whole market stands today — live inventory, median prices and days on market, ZIP by ZIP — the Houston housing market dashboard tracks it hourly.
