Greens Bayou and flood risk in 77050
77050 sits in the Greens Bayou watershed, where homes and businesses have flooded many times over the past two decades. Tropical Storm Allison in 2001 and Hurricane Harvey in 2017 brought severe flooding across the watershed, and during Harvey, Greens Bayou had one of the highest numbers of flooded homes in the county. Low-lying ground near the bayou and its tributaries is the most exposed when heavy rain overwhelms drainage. When flood water reaches a home, it comes in low and is often contaminated, and once it does, it soaks into flooring, drywall, and framing within hours, with mold able to begin growing within a day or two.

Ranch-style homes in Scenic Woods and Northwood Manor
Much of the housing in 77050 is mid-century and later ranch-style homes, many on generous lots, with some newer construction mixed in. These are generally slab homes, so water from a burst pipe, water heater, or appliance spreads across the floor and wicks up into the walls rather than travel between levels. In homes that have flooded before, drying well also means checking for lingering damp and mold that can follow a flood.
First steps if you have water damage in 77050
While you wait for help:
- Stop the water at its source if you safely can, such as shutting the main valve for a burst pipe.
- Turn off power to the affected area, and never step into standing water where electricity is live.
- Stay clear of flood and contaminated water, since it can carry bacteria and other hazards.
- Move valuables up and clear of the water.
- Do not use a household vacuum on standing water, since it is not built for it and can be dangerous.
Anything larger than a small, clean spill, or any water that may be contaminated, is safer handled by a professional.
