I spent a short time renting in Bridgeland off Peek Road, and honestly, I lucked out. I had access to both paid and unpaid routes in and out of the neighborhood. Not everyone does. And if you don’t, that’s where the real cost of living in Bridgeland quietly starts to add up.
Most people already know Bridgeland is notorious for its property taxes. Some homeowners are paying 3.3% or more, and that number climbs even higher if you’re zoned into a double MUD (ouch). To put that in perspective, the Texas average sits closer to 2.6%. That difference isn’t abstract — it’s hundreds of extra dollars per month baked directly into your mortgage.
