– Local leaders give their Lake Houston growth forecast –
Lake Houston is booming and Mark Mitchell has the statistics to prove it.
“There’s been a five-fold increase in population since the 1980 census and by 2023, we estimate the Lake Houston population will be 320,000,” Mitchell said. “That’s a significant number for an area that’s as small as Lake Houston.”
Mitchell had more statistics to report. At least 210,000 vehicles pass Deerbrook Mall in Humble every day. Already, some 85,000 vehicles pass Generation Park just off the beltway every day.
