How is subdivision Briar meadow, 77063? (Point: apartments, houses, neighborhood)

[domoreforless]

We like the neighbourhood, would like to purchase houses there. The community has 24-hr police petrol, pool, newly constructed park, house price range $250-$400K. And it's a short commute as I work in greenway plaza and hubby works in energy corridor.

But the houses are really old, 60s, 70s. How does the house hold the value in this neighbourhood?

I would very much appreciate if anyone knows the area fairly well can share some information here.

It's an island neighborhood surrounded by some older apartments and unzoned residential/commercial/light industrial. If it was north of westheimer, the prices would double. The HISD schools are poor in that area (zoned to Lee High, not good). I don't have experience living there but have driven through the area and the neighborhood itself seems ok...it's certainly convenient to the galleria.

The zoned middle school is Briar Meadow and it's an examplary. Correct me if I am wrong.

Briar Meadow is a charter school, you'll likely have to test to get in and/or go through a lottery. Piney Point is probobly you're zoned elementary.

The community is an older community with homes that have been built in the late 50's as well. The prices have dropped per sq ft over the past few years, but this applicable to most areas. Briar Meadow has about 17 active listings, but some of the prices are a bit padded in my opinion.
