Royal Oaks Country Club

[2] Sunrise Colony Company developed Royal Oaks out of the former Andrau Airpark property.

The company selected the site to develop a community because of the location in proximity to several business districts (it is immediately west of the Westchase business district), The Galleria, entertainment centers, George Bush Intercontinental Airport, and William P. Hobby Airport (via the Sam Houston Tollway (Beltway 8) which runs about a mile east).

[citation needed] As of 2007[update] it was one of several communities that attracted upper income Mexican citizens.

The area around what is now Station 83 experienced a wave of construction of high density housing, which stressed the existing emergency infrastructure services.

[7] Houston City Council District F covers Royal Oaks Country Club.

A group of homeowners in Royal Oaks named Property Tax Votes Alief Area campaigned against the increase.

[9] As of 2019[update] The Village School in the Energy Corridor area has a bus service to Royal Oaks Country Club.

Betty L. Martin of the Houston Chronicle wrote that Alief ISD voters had "overwhelmingly" approved the annexation of HCC into the tax base.

The Property Tax Votes Alief Area group has protested that proposal on November 4, 2008.
