Self Storage – Sugar Land

Sugar Land is a Bustling Community with Bountiful Opportunity

Affluent and fast-growing Sugar Land is a pretty “sweet” place to call home. Although it’s no longer a sugar plantation (which gave this community its memorable name), it’s still a prime destination for businesses. With low taxes and easy access to central Houston and the Sugar Land Regional Airport, many companies are headquartered here, including CVR Energy and Minute Maid.

Sugar Land also has a strong health care industry, with two major hospitals: St. Luke’s Health Sugar Land Hospital and the Houston Methodist Sugar Land Hospital. As the second-largest private employer in Fort Bend County, Houston Methodist employs more than 2,000 people and admits around 17,000 patients annually.

Did you know Sugar Land has the most master-planned communities in Fort Bend County? Plus, Fort Bend County has the most master-planned communities in the nation. That means many people in Sugar Land enjoy ultimate convenience, with lush golf courses, luxurious clubhouses and highly rated schools nearby.

Major Sugar Land landmarks include the Smart Financial Centre, an indoor venue with 64,000 seats for concerts, graduations and other events. There’s also Constellation Field, home to the Sugar Land Skeeters Minor League Baseball Team. In 2020, the Skeeters became a Triple-A affiliate of the Houston Astros.

Things to Do in Sugar Land

Anyone new to Sugar Land should begin their day at the Sugar Land Town Square, a lively shopping complex spanning 32 acres. The towering Sugar Land City Hall anchors the complex to the east, facing a sprawling pedestrian plaza with a fountain and sculptures. One of the bronze sculptures, depicting two young women taking a selfie, was met with nationwide criticism and acclaim, even included in a 2016 New Yorker article, “The Year in Nine Objects.” The complex also includes a selection of restaurants, retail, the Sugar Land Marriott, the First Colony Mall, a conference center, condominiums and plentiful office space.  

Once you’ve window-shopped, grabbed a snack and contemplated the Town Square’s artwork, head over to the Houston Museum of Natural Science at Sugar Land. Designed for hands-on learning, this museum includes an outdoor butterfly garden, an archaeological dig pit and domed theater. Make sure to see the Collection of History, Mystery and Wonder, a sort of “create-your-own-adventure” exhibit with eight themed galleries that encourage curiosity and exploration.

Another family-friendly destination is the Fort Bend Children’s Discovery Center. Among the Center’s immersive exhibits is Kidtropolis, where children can run their very own city, take on jobs and even make and spend fictional money. The Tot*Spot is appropriate for the youngest guests, with bilingual activities, a book nook and imaginative play structures.

Get some fresh air at one of Sugar Land’s many parks. We recommend Sugar Land Memorial Park, which hugs the Brazos River on the west side of town. The peaceful park includes walking and biking trails, two rentable pavilions, a playground and a lake for fishing, kayaking and canoeing. It also neighbors a six-acre dog park to delight our four-legged friends. You can also visit the Veterans Memorial, which lists the name of Sugar Land soldiers who have died while serving in the Armed Forces.
