About College Station
Living in College Station
College Station is home to the main campus of Texas A&M University. The city grew up around the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas, which opened in 1876 as the first public institution of higher education in the state, and it incorporated in 1938. At the 2020 census about 120,511 people lived in the city, which is about 83 miles northwest of Houston.
The market here serves several kinds of buyers. Families look at established and newer neighborhoods across the city. Parents of students and investors look at homes and condos near campus. Buyers who want more room look south toward Wellborn and Millican for acreage. Almost all of College Station is in College Station ISD, which operates A&M Consolidated High School and College Station High School, and small parts of the city are in Bryan ISD.
