Clear Lake & NASA Houston Housing

The Clear Lake area in southeast Houston is defined by its unique identity as home to NASA's Johnson Space Center, the University of Houston-Clear Lake, and the Clear Lake waterway system. The community attracts aerospace and engineering professionals, UHCL students and faculty, and residents who value waterfront lifestyle with urban accessibility.

Housing options span apartment complexes near NASA and UHCL, waterfront properties and marina-adjacent homes, and established single-family neighborhoods in communities like El Lago, Webster, Nassau Bay, and Seabrook. Apartments run $950–$1,900/mo, and homes $1,400–$2,800/mo. The area has a distinct character unlike anywhere else in the Houston metro.

NASA's Johnson Space Center, the Kemah Boardwalk (20 minutes east), and Clear Lake and Galveston Bay access for boating and recreation are defining amenities. Highway 45 South connects to Downtown Houston in 35–45 minutes, and the Beltway 8 South provides cross-metro access. Galveston is 45 minutes south.

We help renters and relocating professionals find available housing in the Clear Lake area, including listings near specific aerospace campuses and marina communities.
