Historically known for its rural charm, best-in-class manufacturing and Prairie View A&M University, Waller County is transitioning into an urban area. Positioned just outside Harris County, Waller County is considered the “last frontier for the immediate Houston region.” The county is home to nearly 60,000 residents and over 800 businesses, and the population is steadily growing. From 2010 to 2021, the county’s population increased an average of 2.9% each year, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
