Its me again! Almost set to moving to the area and i read about refineries. Any comments on friendswood being close to refineries? Is it really that bad? Thank you all!

Any recommendations for activities in friendswood for toddlers?

Would like to live close to work but the new construction homes in friendswood are limited. Anyone with opinions on living in League city while working in friendswood? Is the school district there good? How was the flood situation there? Thank you!

Hello! Needing opinion from people who have lived here for a while. We are moving from another city. Hows the flooding situation? School districts with friendswood isd? Toddler activities? Any opinion on avalon community by taylor morrison? Thank you!

Anyone know if we are allowed to use the middle school or high school track? Obviously not during school hours, but after hours.

Are there any neighborhoods in the Friendswood area where kids play outside unsupervised like they used to back in the good old days?

If you don't feel comfortable saying so here, you can send me a private message.

Why do I ask? My husband and I are looking to move here, and my main priority is for my kids to go outside, in our yard and general neighborhood or neighborhood parks, and be kids without the constant need for supervision. Of course, this is for mature kids who are street-smart and understand traffic/people safety. If other kids are doing it, it would be amazing and safer for them all, and we'd need a street with slow traffic.

(See letgrow.org for more if you wonder why I want this and/or think I'm crazy.)

Our beloved cat Mingus is missing. Last seen at midnight ish yesterday (Thursday) at home on Carey Lane. He must have went through the doggy door. Any info is so appreciated!

I’m racking my brain for gift ideas for my mom, and she’d expressed interest in setting up an appointment with a personal stylist to help her out. Anyone know of any good ones in the area and what pricing is like? This would be to go over her personal style (not office wear) and maybe go through her closet, as well as brainstorm styles that would fit/be good for her.

Hi everyone!

I (33F) am brand new to the area (here for work) and I don't know a single other person here. I imagine that might be a common situation amongst other young professionals, so I thought I would try putting together a fun, inclusive group where women, men, LGBTQ+ folks, and non-binary friends can get together, hang out, and connect over good vibes and mutual interests.

Whether you're also new in town, looking to expand your social circle, or just wanting a chill place to feel comfortable, come as you are! We can plan all kinds of activities—grab a coffee, go for walks, check out local events, game nights, or just have some relaxed get-togethers where everyone feels welcome.

If you're interested, drop a comment below or DM me, and I'll start organizing something for us. Can’t wait to meet all of you!

Hey can y’all tell me where and when I can go vote absentee in this election. I’m here in Friendswood. Just wanted to know. Thanks.

Does anyone recall the name of the new age store? This would’ve been around the early 2000s, maybe the late '90s. I want to say it was on the left side of the Sears entrance. I know there was a Natural Wonders store closer to the food court, but I specifically remember there was a new age store that sold candles, rainsticks, burning sage, and Enigma CDs.

Would be coming from NC. Curious on folks’ thoughts.

I went to the 1776 memorial park for the first time recently and it has a different vibe to it from parks I normally go to, (Usually I go to Pearland, Houston, and clear lake).

When I got there it was just me and a middle age Caucasian man in the parking lot. He was just roaming around and smoking. He was watchful of me as I got my stuff out of my car and did not seem pleasant at all.

When I went to leave a different car was in the parking lot. Instead of being in a space, they backed in to the rear of the parking lot to face the exit. They were in their car with the motor running. It just seemed weird to park so they're not in a space or facing any of the trees or anything worth looking at. They're just facing the drive way out of the parking lot.

This park is kind of tucked away. So is it unusual for new people to use it? I don't know, the vibe was just really off there. Is that park best left to the locals?

In case it's relevant, I'm 38, F, and I don't like to say things are race related but I could see that maybe pegging me as an outsider in Friendswood since the city is 80% white.

All - Really appreciate the advice and information on my last post re neighborhoods. Wanted to also ask of anyone has experience with the park and ride into downtown? I will be going into the office 2-3 times per week and would like to use this so I can use my commute time for work, reading, sleep, etc. Thank you again!

Hello - Moving to Houston within the next few months and believe we’ve decided on Friendswood for the schools (elementary and middle school aged children), small town feel and proximity to my work downtown (plan on trying the park and ride, would love feedback on viability) as well as recreational options on the Gulf. We really want to find a family friendly neighborhood where we can do school drop off and pickup from our golf cart and avoid the long car lines. What communities would you suggest? Thanks!

Does anyone know someone that services the Friendswood area to replace a roof that doesn't cost an arm and a leg and doesn't want to make a claim to insurance?

I'm moving to the neighborhood this week. Looking for a run club, hiking trails, Americana music, open mics, and vegetarian food. Any suggestions?

Any volleyball groups around here? Would love to play some pick up games - sand or indoor.

If you are very pleased with your kitchen remodel, who did you use, and do you recommend them?

We are relocating to the Friendswood area from San Antonio later this month and have been looking at different day cares/early learning schools for our two year old. One of the schools we have narrowed down to is For Children Only - Friendswood. The Google reviews look good but the most recent reviews are 3-4 years old. Wondering if anyone on this subreddit has any feedback. Thanks!
