Where Is the Path of Progress in Houston?
Title says it all.
Am interested in starting my RE journey in Houston and would like to have an idea of some up-and-coming neighborhoods to target. Can be inside of or outside the loop.
Thanks!

Quote from @Wale Lawal:
Houston's emerging neighborhoods include East End, Third Ward, Heights, Spring Branch, Independence Heights, Alief, Cypress, Pearland, Richmond/Rosenberg, and Conroe/Woodlands. These areas offer a mix of renovated bungalows, new construction, and industrial conversions, with increased demand from young professionals. Near the University of Houston and Texas Southern University, these areas offer rental properties and investment opportunities.
Good Luck!
Cypress and Alief?
Spring Branch and Conroe?
These are quite literally opposing areas in nearly every facet.
