Families and professionals who desire a coastal resort environment will certainly enjoy Clear Lake City and the surrounding areas of Clear Lake Shores, El Lago, Kemah, League City, Nassau Bay, Seabrook, Taylor Lake Village and Webster, says Roya Arfa, Texas Realtor and Relocation Specialist for Beth Wolff Realtors in Houston. Only 35 miles from the cultural, commercial and entertainment venues of downtown Houston, the Galleria and the Museum District, and only a half hour from Galveston Bay with its wonderful recreational opportunities, the Clear Lake area has a strong sense of community, excellent business opportunities and outstanding academic offerings provided by the Clear Creek Independent School District and the University of Houston Clear Lake.

The area features many master-planned residential communities with swimming pools; tennis courts, playgrounds, parks and golf courses, and has one of the largest concentrations of recreational boats and marinas in the U.S. In fact, Clear Lake is often referred to as the nation's "sailboat capital." There are excellent medical facilities; hundreds of retail establishments close by, including major retailers and unique shops, galleries and restaurants, providing big-city conveniences in this peaceful, semi-tropical setting.

Residents of the area can choose an idyllic, relaxed lifestyle or an active one. There are many places of interest, including NASA's Johnson Space Center and Space Center Houston, Gulf Greyhound Park, the Kemah Boardwalk with rides and amusements, fine dining, festivals and other events, and "pelican watching" in the historic community of Seabrook with its antique shops and boutiques. There is a host of annual community events such as the Wings over Houston Air Fest at Ellington Field, the Gulf Coast Film & Video Festival, Partners in Space (formerly the Russian Festival) and the Ballunar Festival. The area also has its own ballet company, the Clear Creek Country Theatre for live performances and outstanding art exhibits at the Arts Alliance of Clear Lake. Outdoor enthusiasts find the Clear Lake/Bay area appealing, not just for its many water-related activities, but also for its Armand Bayou Nature Center, the Texas Birding Trail and the Jarboe Bayou Project wildlife sanctuary, which will open soon.
