Elyson is a premier master-planned community located in North Katy, Texas, just off the Grand Parkway and FM 529. Developed by Newland (the creators of Cinco Ranch), Elyson is designed for active, modern living, featuring extensive parks, miles of hiking trails, a beautiful community center (Elyson House), and a resident-only cafe. As we progress through 2026, Elyson is one of the most active new-construction markets in the region.

Because Elyson is a newer community with state-of-the-art infrastructure and continuous expansion, it carries an overall property tax rate of approximately 3.1%. This rate includes the local Municipal Utility District (MUD) taxes, Katy ISD school tax, and Harris County assessments.

These modern, well-equipped campuses provide world-class education, making Elyson an excellent long-term investment for families.
