Mission Bend, TX

104 Apartments for Rent with Pools

Mission Bend, Texas is a little town just outside of Houston. The city is about 20 miles from downtown, so it draws in a lot of folks who work in Houston but don't want the big-city pace of life. The population is around 36,501 according to the 2010 U.S. census. You can hop in and out of Houston on the METRO buses or cruise downtown in your Cadillac - or pickup if you're a real Texan. It's a pretty tiny place but most people head into Houston for shopping, dining and entertainment and use Mission Bend as a place to relax and soak up some of that good ol' Texan sunshine! See more

Finding apartments with a pool in Mission Bend means cooling off from the summer heat, get-togethers, and more exercise. However, there are a few things to consider before signing your next lease.

Ask the property management how long the pool is open each year. Is it seasonal? Does the pool have a heat pump to make it practical to swim beyond summertime? You should also inquire about pool rules, capacity, and if unattended children are permitted. The size of the pool also matters. An oversized apartment complex with a tiny pool could mean crowded summers and frustrations when trying to take a quick dip.

Finding apartments with a pool in Mission Bend could also drive up your rent, but may be worth the trade-off. Assess the overall amenities of the property. Apartments with a pool may look fantastic on the outside, but inside the kitchen could need an upgrade or the bedrooms could prove smaller than you want.

Once you find the apartment of your dreams, enjoy an afternoon swim and get to know your new neighbors.
