Calling all outdoor enthusiasts, cyclists, history buffs, and fun-seekers! At the intersection of FM 1774 and FM 1488, the city of Magnolia, which serves as the entrance to the Texas piney woods, provides an outdoor paradise for activities like golf, cycling, and birdwatching. Many people ride bicycles year-round along the picturesque Montgomery Trace, which has five MS-150 qualifying routes. Magnolia is a great place for camping, hiking, and fishing at local ponds.

The combination of starry nights and city lights in Conroe is ideal. Conroe has a lot to offer and is the Texas city with the greatest population growth. A real nirvana for the outdoorsman in all of us, Conroe is surrounded by the 22,000-acre Lake Conroe, Sam Houston National Forest, and W. Goodrich Jones State Forest. Conroe boasts a vibrant downtown with breweries, theaters, and a ton of shopping in addition to the outdoors. Also, there is a ton of live music, which has led to Texas designating Conroe as a Music Friendly Town. Conroe has everything you’re searching for, whether you want an adventure or just a little downtime.

One of Texas’s oldest cities is Montgomery. Early Montgomery served as the commercial hub for a huge farmland region where stagecoach and telegraph routes intersected. 1839 saw the opening of the first school, and 1848 saw the incorporation of Montgomery as a city. The 1850s saw a building boom, and some of the houses constructed at that time still stand today. Charles B. Stewart, a local, produced the drawing of the Lone Star flag, which was formally recognized by the Republic of Texas in 1839 and has flown over Texas ever since. This is how the appellation “Birthplace of the Texas Flag” came to be. Residents in Montgomery enjoy a suburban, rural mix, and the majority own their homes. Montgomery is a city with a large number of families. Montgomery’s public schools are well-regarded.
