    Clearly everything is bigger in Texas, and that’s definitely true about 88 W Grand Regency Cir. in The Woodlands. The home boasts more than 30,000 square feet unfold across more than four acres, including 10 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms.

    The palatial estate is on the market for $13 million and is represented by Diane Kink of The Kink Team.

    This estate comes in at number two of the most expensive listings in the state, according to HAR.com. It’s only topped by 5531 Walnut Hill Lane in Dallas, which is just one more thing that will add to the never-ending Bayou City-Big D rivalry.

    But back to 88 W Grand Regency Circle. This is the kind of house that’s tailor-made for a family that loves entertaining, both inside and out. When a home has more than 7,000 square feet of terraces alone, it’s definitely an A-list spot for wine on the patio, family birthdays, summer celebrations, and more.

    Imagine an all-out bash by the in-ground pool or a smaller ladies weekend brunch on one of the covered side patios.

    Prefer to be indoors? There are cozy alcoves for quiet conversations, a movie room with a giant screen and a casual eating space that’s modeled after a mid-century American diner. On the first floor, the “gentleman’s study” has a private elevator to the second floor. A third-floor VIP suite features its own bar and lounge, and a massive closet with bay windows.

    Exquisite detailing is on display throughout, from inlaid and carved ceilings, to lighted glass display cabinets to Corinthian pillars.

    There’s covered parking for six cars, two motor courts, two spas flanking the pool, two separate apartments, a pool house, an owner’s office with separate space for an assistant. This epic home truly needs to be seen to be believed.

    And even then, it might still seem like something out of a fantasy.

    This affluent Houston neighbor is America's 2nd wealthiest suburb

    West University Place, Houston, Texas
    City of West University Place, TX - City Government / Facebook
    West University Place is the fourth best suburb for house renters in Texas.

    West University Place has long been considered Houston's richest suburb, and a new study has revealed this affluent enclave has climbed to the top to become the second wealthiest in America.

    The report from GoBankingRates, called "America’s Wealthiest Suburbs Today Compared to 10 Years Ago," tracked the average household income across the nation's 50 wealthiest suburbs from 2014 to 2024. Cities had to have at least 5,000 households and be part of a large metro area to qualify. Income data was sourced from the Census Bureau.

    In the new report, West University Place moved up one spot to become the second richest American suburb after ranking third for two consecutive years. Its current ranking is also two spots higher than where it ranked in 2016, at No. 4 nationwide.

    The findings also confirm that its residents have certainly become richer over time. According to Census Bureau data, West U. households made $294,723 in average income 2014, which has since surged to $439,594 in 2024.

    One more Houston neighbor, Bellaire, also appears among the 50 wealthiest American suburbs. Bellaire now ranks 18th, up from No. 23 last year. Bellaire households made $335,492 on average as of 2024, up from $226,295 in 2014.

    Of course, calling either city a "suburb" is sort of absurd, as the late Ken Hoffman hilariously argued in a 2024 column. "A little research or even a phone call would have told them that neither West U nor Bellaire is a suburb. Both are fully independent cities that are completely surrounded by Houston on all sides," Hoffman wrote.

    Other affluent suburbs in Texas
    Dallas-Fort Worth neighbors University Park, Southlake, and Colleyville are also named among the top 50 wealthiest American suburbs for 2026.

    University Park maintains its elite status as the sixth wealthiest suburb in America for the third year in a row. Households made $407,253 on average in total annual income in 2024, up from $254,422 in 2014.

    Southlake is the country's eighth wealthiest suburb for 2026, up from No. 16 in 2016. Average household income in this bustling city has grown from $232,034 in 2014 to $384,530 as of 2024, for a growth rate of about 66 percent.

    Colleyville, meanwhile, has dropped down the list of the wealthiest suburbs over the last 10 years. It currently ranks 46th but previously ranked 28th in 2016. Average household income in this particular DFW city has increased 35 percent, from $205,828 to $277,720 in 2024.

    The top 10 wealthiest suburbs in America in 2026 are:

    • No. 1 – Scarsdale, New York
    • No. 2 – West University Place, Texas
    • No. 3 – Rye, New York
    • No. 4 – Los Altos, California
    • No. 5 – Paradise Valley, Arizona
    • No. 6 – University Park, Texas
    • No. 7 – Alamo, California
    • No. 8 – Southlake, Texas
    • No. 9 – McLean, Virginia
    • No. 10 – Orinda, California
