​​​​​​​HUMBLE, KINGWOOD – Several new shopping and grocery options are coming to the Lake Houston area as commercial developers venture farther north and south of Deerbrook Mall on FM 1960. ​​Four lar​ge-scale retail-anchored developments are under construction as developers target the area’s rapid population growth, relatively uncongested traffic arteries, and a high availability of undeveloped land.

The Lake Houston-area population is projected to increase by more than 30,000 people between 2015–2020. ​

“Retail follows rooftops,” Charlie Dromgoole, senior vice president of economic development for the Lake Houston Area Chamber of Commerce, said. “It’s almost a chain reaction. You’ve got good schools, lots of land, and good transportation. It all starts flowing when the housing starts flowing, and the retail follows.” ​
