Physical Environment
Make sure you address fully what you observed and NOTE if something was not found within your community area.
● Boundaries What defines the boundaries? Roads, water, railroads. Is the area known for a particular name? What area is this community located in?
Highways, beautiful neighborhood streets, and roads define the boundaries of the community I chose to live in, which is known as Sienna Plantations. Man- made lakes and small pavilions surrounded by very beautiful varieties of flowers are found throughout the community, creating a very relaxing atmosphere. Sienna Plantations is located in between two growing cities, Sugar Land and Missouri City. I live in Missouri City. There are even reservoirs and major channels that connect to the Brazos River running throughout parts of our community, giving the parts and walking trails an abundance of great, small scale sightings of wildlife that is not too harmful.
● Housing and Zoning
What is the age of the houses? Describe type of construction material, appearance, and general condition. Do you see single family housing? Multi-family housing?
Since Sienna Plantations was a master planned community that began construction around late 1996, it is still rapidly growing to this day. Thus a huge portion of houses in this community are around 20 years old, where as
the house that I currently live in is around 8 years old. There are still new homes being built, and there are many homes in this community that are around one to three years old. In general, there are around 4 main builders who have contracts to build smaller neighborhoods throughout Sienna Plantations. All of these builders use different materials and plans. However, in my neighborhood, there is a large incorporation of stucco, and stone designs. Also, most of the houses are in great condition, due to the Home Owners Association being very stringent on their deed policies. From my perspective, I can personality attest that all of the houses are rather amazing to look at. Most of the houses that are located in Sienna Plantations are built for single family housing. However, one of the newer mini-neighborhoods is accommodating a design plan for mufti-family housing.
● Common Meeting Places
Where do people in the neighborhood hang out? Who hangs out there and what hours of the day?
