Welcome Back to Cypress Digest! Your Weekly Guide to Community News & Events in Cypress, TX.
I need a favor, neighborsβ¦. We have over 3,100 subscribers nowπ³. But for those of you whoβve been here more than a week. I know very little about you (what you like, what youβre looking for). And thatβs on me.
If you have 1.5 minutes, I created this survey, and it would help me so much to know you better and create a better experience.
Cheers!, Ashlyn π²π

Trader Joeβs is Near Completion. Some are thinking it will open sooner than expectedβ¦
The announcement of the new Cypress Trader Joeβs dropped earlier in July, and everyone is getting excited (including me). I have heard nothing but good things, but I have never been inside one. Well, for the $900,000 cost to build, Iβm ready to see what all of the fuss is about. Opening day is set for December 1st, but with the construction seemingly done, this may be sooner.

Reads From Tuesday:
A&M Released The September Texas Economic Outlook Report
The latest Texas Economic Outlook from Texas A&M highlights how broader trends could ripple into communities like Cypress. Here are three big-picture findings I thought were interesting:
Texas Jobs Are Holding Strong ποΈββοΈ
While the U.S. job market is slowing, Texas is showing resilience. Most metro areas added jobs in July, with San Antonio and Brownsville leading. Houstonβs growth (our region) was flat, but surveys show local businesses expect stronger hiring in the coming months.Fed Policy Shifting Toward Rate Cutsπ
The Federal Reserve has signaled a pivot away from its stricter stance, aiming to cut rates as unemployment edges higher. This shift could gradually ease borrowing costs and give businesses and families in Cypress more breathing room, even if mortgage rates take longer to adjust.Energy Sector Drag, Services Drive Growthπ§
Oil-related industries (mining/logging) continue to struggle, which affects many Houston-area workers. On the flip side, services, retail, and healthcare are driving Texasβ economic growthβsectors that directly benefit Cypress families and local businesses.
Cypress is Officially Getting Another Costco
Who called it? πββοΈππ½ β Back in July, I might have made a tiny prediction based on the assumption that many know to be true. Whenever Costco does a parking lot expansion, typically another location isnβt far behind. Well, after they announced the expansion of the parking for the current Costco off of 290, I figured it was only a matter of time. What I wasnβt expecting was an announcement of the build to be made so soon. [Read my full release about the New Costco coming in 2026!]
And in case youβre wondering:
No, they have not announced the address yet, but many suspect it will sit near Elyson.
No, they have not confirmed (or denied) if this will have an adjoining liquor store like Katy and The Woodlands, butβ¦ Iβve got a hunch. πππ½
