Living in Manvel, Texas

Manvel is a city in northern Brazoria County, about 20 miles south of downtown Houston. State Highway 288 runs through the northwest part of the city and State Highway 6 runs through the middle, giving residents a direct route to downtown Houston, the Texas Medical Center and Pearland.

Manvel started as a railroad stop on the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railroad in the late 1800s and incorporated as a city in 1960. It had about 10,000 residents in the 2020 census and has grown quickly since, driven by new master-planned communities.

Popular Manvel Communities

Current listings with a Manvel address include homes in Meridiana, Valencia, Pomona, Rodeo Palms, Lakeland, Del Bello Lakes, Foxtail Palms and Terra Estates. The newer master-planned communities typically offer amenity centers, pools, lakes and trails, while older parts of Manvel have homes on larger lots and acreage with no HOA.

Some communities with a Manvel mailing address sit partly or fully in neighboring cities such as Iowa Colony, which can affect property taxes and city services. We can help you check before you buy.

Most of Manvel is served by Alvin ISD. Manvel High School serves areas north of State Highway 6, and Iowa Colony High School serves areas to the south.
