NEARBY COMMUNITY / PORTER, TEXAS
A Porter alternative to a New Caney home search
The Highlands is in Porter, Montgomery County, off the Grand Parkway. It belongs in a nearby-community comparison rather than being described as a subdivision in central New Caney. Compare the exact drive, section, home specification and finished amenities before choosing between it and Tavola or Pinewood.
What stands out
The developer describes a master-planned setting with trails, lakes and a substantial recreation offering. Ask which amenities are operating and which access or membership charges apply to the selected home. Fairway Pines is a distinct active-adult section with additional association obligations.
Taxes and association fees
The developer FAQ estimates total taxes at 3.13% on a 2025 basis, including 1.25% MUD, and approximately $1,584 annual association dues. Its 2026 Fairway Pines subassociation estimate is another $2,200 annually. Confirm the parcel’s current tax stack and written assessment schedule; do not add the MUD percentage to a total that already includes it.
