Spring Texas is an area located along I-45, about 20 miles north of Houston.  Most of Spring is in unincorporated Northwest Harris County but part of Spring extends in to unincorporated Montgomery County.  Spring TX does not have official boundaries since it is not incorporated; there is not an actual town of Spring TX. The area is close enough to Houston to be able to enjoy the amenities but far enough away to still feel like you are in the country.  It is very accessible to the amenities of the Woodlands.

Spring was settled by German immigrants in 1840. The Wunsche family settled in the area and began farming the land. The area had a tremendous growth after the railroad was built through the town in 1871. The town served as a railroad center in the early 1900's.  You can visit the Spring Texas Historical Museum to find out a more complete history of the area.

 Many locals remember that one of the three Goodyear blimps, the airship America was based here from 1969 to 1992.

Parts of Spring TX are located in three different school districts; Spring ISD, Klein ISD and Conroe ISD.    Spring ISD boundaries are mainly to the east of I-45 in Northwest Harris County.  Klein ISD boundaries are mainly to the west of I-45 in Northwest Harris County and Conroe ISD boundaries are mainly to the east of I-45 in Southeast Montgomery County.
