Home of the Houston Rodeo and livestock show! There's always something good happening at NRG, the upcoming calendar is displayed on two sides of the arena, and with such easy access to the events it would be a shame to miss out. NRG also shares a neighborhood with the world renowned Texas Medical Center. Some of the most hopeful hearts come through this area to be treated by the best and brightest that Houston has to offer. Being a very central location there is access to the most sought after areas of Houston no more than twenty minutes away! There's food and shopping for everyone at all hours of the day. Access to all of the major highways (apologies in advance for traffic due to construction 🚧)

Getting around
Plan Drivable Outings Accordingly
Do not travel during rush hours if at all possible. Weekdays 7am-9am(lunch hour is around noon and most schools start releasing around 2:30pm), and 5pm-7pm.
If going to the galleria area avoid traveling during the hours of 12pm-7pm.
If going to Galveston for a beach 🏖️ day start as early as possible for a family outing, but feel free to stick around after hours for the socialization to switch gears to the night life.
If planning to visit NASA schedule it first. Tours are only available for scheduled groups.
