Home / New Construction / Aliana
Aliana, mapped.
I’m Eddie Weir, REALTOR® with REMAX Signature in Greater Houston. Aliana is one of Richmond’s newer master-planned communities — Lamar CISD elementary feeders, resort-style amenities, and deep new-construction inventory across Perry Homes, Highland Homes, Toll Brothers, David Weekley, and other builders. This guide is the lay of the land.
Aliana, Richmond, Texas
What Aliana Is
Richmond’s newer master-planned anchor.
Aliana sits in Richmond along Highway 99 (Grand Parkway). Build-out started in 2010 and remains active. Anchor amenities include resort-style pools, the Aliana Activity Center, miles of internal trails, and a community amenity package. Lamar CISD covers the schools. Active builders include Perry Homes, Highland Homes, Toll Brothers, David Weekley, and others.
What Aliana Is
Richmond master-planned community with top LCISD elementary feeders, deep new-construction inventory across multiple builders, resort-style amenities, and active build-out through the 2030s.
What Aliana Isn’t
Aliana is not Sugar Land — it’s in Richmond’s municipal area, with Lamar CISD rather than FBISD. It also runs a meaningful price discount to comparable Sugar Land or Riverstone master-planned tracts.
Who It’s For
Aliana fits Lamar CISD-prioritizing families, value-conscious relocating buyers wanting master-planned amenities at a Richmond price tier, and families looking for newer construction at lower per-square-foot than Sugar Land.

The three things nobody warns Aliana buyers about until close.
Aliana’s master-planned profile comes with three consideration areas.
Lamar CISD
Aliana feeds Lamar CISD elementary patterns. LCISD ratings vary; always confirm the specific elementary at the address.
Property Tax Rate
Aliana property tax rates typically land in the 2.6–3.1% range due to MUD bonded debt.
MUD Districts
Aliana is built across multiple MUDs. Each phase has its own MUD; older phases have lower remaining MUD bond debt.
Why People Pick Aliana
Resort amenities, LCISD, and a real Sugar Land alternative.
Aliana’s lifestyle pull combines top LCISD elementary access, resort-style pool complex, the Aliana Activity Center, miles of internal trails, and a community programming calendar. Sugar Land Town Square is 15 minutes north for larger retail; Brazos Town Center handles closer needs.
On the connectivity side, Aliana sits in Richmond along Highway 99 (Grand Parkway). Downtown Houston runs 35–50 minutes off-peak via US-59. The Texas Medical Center is 40–50 minutes east. For LCISD-prioritizing buyers wanting master-planned amenities at a price tier below Sugar Land, Aliana works.
