Houston Neighborhoods -
Cypress-Fairbanks real estate
The second major area of the northwest is Cypress-Fairbanks (Cy-Fair),
demarcated by Highways 249 and 290. Here sits Lakewood Forest, a bedroom
community of mainly single-family homes. It sprouted up around Compaq
Computer Corp., which was founded in 1982 and is now one of the world's
leading manufacturers of personal computers.
