Economic Profile

The Houston Primary Metropolitan Statistical Area, or PMSA, (defined as the region surrounding Houston including the Counties of Chambers, Fort Bend, Harris, Liberty, Montgomery, and Waller) has sustained prolific growth over the past decade, with a 23 percent population increase between 1990 and 2000. Much of the growth has occurred in the southwestern and northern sections of the Houston area with Katy and Tomball being major recipients. Moreover, the northwestern section of the Houston area has experienced significant population growth over the past 10 years, particularly along the US 290 corridor near the Cypress Fairbanks area.

This explosive economic and population growth is forecast to continue in the Houston PMSA, with another 1.5 million people projected to move to the area by 2020. This dramatic growth will continue to occur in the southwestern and northwestern sections of Houston, placing Waller in the path of Houston’s expansion.

Waller is at an important crossroad, and our community leaders have developed a strategic plan to enable the city to capture the economic opportunities that lay ahead of us.
