01 · About Morton Ranch
What is Morton Ranch?
Morton Ranch is a residential community in Katy, Texas, in the 77449 zip code, located just west of Mason Road and south of Morton Road. The neighborhood was built out beginning in the mid-2000s and includes roughly 748 homes under the Morton Ranch HOA.
The community was planned around outdoor life: a swimming pool with a splash pad, two playgrounds, and a large pond that residents use for walking loops. For families, the biggest draw is the schools: Morton Ranch Elementary, Junior High, and High School sit on contiguous campuses a short drive from the community, giving kids a single K-12 pathway in Katy ISD.
For commuters, Mason Road connects south to I-10 and north toward the Grand Parkway (HWY 99), which is why Morton Ranch is popular with people who work in the Energy Corridor and west Houston.
