Iowa Colony rests on State Route 288 just 22 miles south of Downtown Houston and exhibits an idyllic suburban setting for those looking to escape the bustle of the city. You’ll find plenty of single-family home rentals here, all with large lots proximate to the Texas countryside.
Locals gather at the few bars and restaurants located just off the highway, and kids will love the SplashPad Park that helps beat the Texas heat. The amenities that Iowa Colony may lack can be found in Houston, or in nearby Sugar Land, just 20 miles to the west.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
