🎓 Area schools
HISD is chosen campus by campus: it has state-elite magnets (Carnegie Vanguard, DeBakey, HSPVA) and schools in transformation. Here more than anywhere: give me the address and I'll tell you exactly which schools serve it.
Verify the exact school for any address at txschools.gov (official TEA ratings) — or ask me and I will confirm it in minutes.
What you should know
• The Heights (77007/77008) mixes historic bungalows with new townhomes — two distinct markets on the same streets.
• Houston ISD has everything: elite magnet campuses (Carnegie Vanguard, DeBakey) alongside schools in transformation — here you pick campus by campus, not by district.
• For investors: urban rental demand is among the metro's deepest.
