Tomball Texas: City of Great Festivities 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 28, 2018) I experienced a great season while living in Tomball Texas. The city is located in Harris County. Tomball is close to the Houston Texas vicinity. The township is on a successful academic path. They have both great public and private schools and houses Lone Star College-Tomball. H ...Read More ousing and employment markets are moderate. The city is safe during daylight hours. Most communities network together to form active neighborhood watches to keep criminal activity at bay. The city isn't really expensive, and the weather is wonderful year round.

Some of the best areas in Tomball Texas surround the Tomball Town Center. This area is thriving with specialty shops, dining, and other recreational activities. I am pleased to see that the community has broadened its culture and is becoming more diverse. The city hosts festivities all year long. Some are specific to communities, but most are held in the central downtown area. The town gets everyone involved in their heritage carnivals, parades, music, and wine festivals to name a few. The community knows how to have tremendous fun. Read Less
