Joule on Memorial Apartments

Neighborhoods Included

Memorial, Briar Forest

A quick 30-minute drive west of Downtown Houston, the Briar Forest-West Houston community feels like a refreshing oasis away from the busy pace of the urban streets. Although its proximity to the Beltway and Interstate 10 makes for an effortless escape to the city’s major attractions, the feel-good, neighborly vibes will make you never want to stray far from its borders. Block parties, casual get-togethers at local restaurants, and summertime hangs at the community pool are a part of everyday life for this area’s residents — as are local holiday celebrations, such as fireworks on the Fourth of July and extravagant displays of Christmas decorations. Within this area, the Briar Forest neighborhood draws in more of the young professional crowd with its many apartment offerings. Additionally, the affluent Memorial neighborhood’s upscale homes make it one of the more expensive places to settle down.
