Where Aberdeen is

Aberdeen Trails and Aberdeen Green both sit in the Cypress area of unincorporated northwest Harris County, ZIP 77095, in what HAR files under the Copperfield market area. The dividing line is Telge Road, running north–south: Aberdeen Trails is on the east side (Key Map 408A), Aberdeen Green on the west (Key Map 407D). The whole area is boxed in by West Road to the south and U.S. 290 (the Northwest Freeway) to the north, with Highway 6, Barker Cypress, Beltway 8 (the Sam Houston Tollway) to the east, and the Grand Parkway (TX-99) to the west all within a short drive.

One thing worth being clear on up front, because it’s outside the city limits: both subdivisions are in the City of Houston’s extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ), not inside the city. You’ll have a Houston mailing address, but there’s no City of Houston property tax line on these homes, and services come from Harris County, a West Harris County municipal utility district, and the HOA rather than from the city.

The feel of the area

Both neighborhoods read as settled, tree-lined 1990s-and-2000s subdivisions rather than anything brand-new, and each has its own amenity set that residents actually use. Aberdeen Trails (east of Telge) is built around a neighborhood pool, a park, a tennis court, and walking and biking trails that run along the interior easements; the homes here skew larger, on larger lots. Aberdeen Green (west of Telge) is the denser of the two and leans into water and open space: a neighborhood pool, a park, a playground, a volleyball court, walking trails, and a set of detention lakes, with Aberdeen Lake Drive running right past them as an interior street.

The two associations also share a Harris County Precinct 5 constable patrol contract for neighborhood patrols, a common arrangement for MUD-served subdivisions out here. Day-to-day shopping and dining sit just outside both neighborhoods, anchored by Easton Commons Plaza at Highway 6 and West Road (Kroger grocery, restaurants, and smaller shops), with more retail along the U.S. 290, Barker Cypress, and FM 1960 corridors.

Aberdeen homes for sale: the stock and the market

Both subdivisions are overwhelmingly single-family, traditional brick, one- and two-story homes built from the mid-1990s into the early 2000s, and both are effectively all resale — there’s no active builder program, model home, or new-construction inventory in either one, so a buyer set on brand-new construction would look elsewhere in Cypress. The clearest difference between them is size and price, and it’s a real gap: Aberdeen Trails runs larger and higher (HAR 2025: median ~2,736 sq ft on an 8,843 sq ft lot, median year built 1998, value range $330,000–$402,000, 2025 median sold ~$144.80/sq ft), while Aberdeen Green is smaller and denser but a lower entry point (median ~2,254 sq ft on a 6,943 sq ft lot, median year built 2000, value range $258,000–$339,000, 2025 median sold ~$153.33/sq ft).

A caution on those numbers. These are small-sample markets — Aberdeen Trails closes somewhere around 9 to 23 homes in a given year — so a couple of unusual sales swing the median hard, and a single annual $/sq-ft figure is only a directional guide. And the higher $/sq-ft in Green versus Trails doesn’t mean Green homes cost more; it reflects Green’s smaller homes, where the per-foot number runs up while the total price stays lower. Price a home against its own subdivision’s comps, never off the other one and never off the broader 77095 ZIP median. Figures are point-in-time — ask me for this week’s numbers for the exact streets you’re considering.

Aberdeen Trails vs. Aberdeen Green — which one fits you

This is the question I get most, and it’s the reason these two are on one page. Here’s how I’d frame the choice.

Choose Aberdeen Trails if the house itself is the priority. You get more square footage and more lot (median 2,736 sq ft on 8,843 sq ft), and the trade-off is a higher entry price — the value range runs into the low $400s. Trails is zoned to Fiest Elementary. It’s the pick when you want the bigger house and yard and the budget supports the $330K–$400K band.

Choose Aberdeen Green if the entry price is the priority. You’re in a smaller, denser home (median 2,254 sq ft on 6,943 sq ft) at a meaningfully lower range — the low $260s to high $330s — with the same Cy-Fair ISD access and comparable HOA amenities. Green is zoned to Birkes Elementary, which currently carries a higher TEA rating than Fiest (an A versus a B for 2024–25). Green is the pick when you want to be in this pocket of Cypress at the lowest number, or want the specific elementary zoning.

A few things are the same either way: both are Cy-Fair ISD, both feed Labay Middle and Cypress Falls High, both sit on West Harris County MUD 14 at about the same ~2.23% combined tax rate, both are car-dependent with the same highway access, both are in the Addicks watershed, and both have their own pool, park, and trails. And one caution that applies to both: there’s a well-known naming collision out here. A 16000-block stretch of “Aberdeen Green Dr” actually belongs to a different subdivision (Canyon Lakes at Stonegate), with different schools and a different HOA. It’s exactly the kind of thing that leads a buyer to the wrong comps, the wrong school zoning, or the wrong HOA. I verify the plat on every Aberdeen home before we rely on any of it.

Taxes — the ETJ and the MUD

The good news on taxes here is that the picture is cleaner than the online profiles make it look. Because both subdivisions are in the City of Houston ETJ, there’s no city property tax. Both Aberdeen Trails and Aberdeen Green are served by West Harris County MUD 14, and — checking confirmed parcels in each subdivision at HCAD (August 2026) — the 2025 combined rate lands at about $2.23 per $100 of value (roughly 2.23%) for both.

MUD 14 has levied a maintenance-and-operations rate only, with no debt service, in recent years. One thing that trips people up: Aberdeen Green’s HAR profile lists both MUD 14 and MUD 15 with a note that “tax type varies for each property.” That’s almost certainly the naming collision at work — the nearby 16000-block “Aberdeen Green Dr” parcels that actually belong to Canyon Lakes at Stonegate get swept into HAR’s Aberdeen Green profile, and they sit in a different district. The genuine Aberdeen Green subdivision parcels I checked (Sections 1 and 7) are all on MUD 14, same as Aberdeen Trails. It’s still worth confirming the exact home’s jurisdiction and current rate at HCAD.org before you offer — I’ll pull it for you so we’re underwriting the actual bill. Texas homestead exemptions then apply once it’s your primary residence, including the Cy-Fair ISD homestead exemption (20% of appraised value plus $140,000 after the November 2025 Proposition 13 increase), which materially lowers the school portion.

Schools

Both subdivisions are entirely within Cypress-Fairbanks ISD (Cy-Fair ISD), and no portion of either falls in another district. Where they differ is the elementary campus: Aberdeen Trails is zoned to Fiest Elementary (TEA rating B, 2024–25), and Aberdeen Green is zoned to Birkes Elementary (TEA rating A, 2024–25). Both then feed Labay Middle School (B) and Cypress Falls High School (B).

Cy-Fair ISD earned an overall B from the Texas Education Agency for 2024–25. Ratings are reported here as sourced facts, not as my judgment of any school. Because zoning is set by the exact property address and Cy-Fair periodically re-zones — and because of the Aberdeen-Green-Dr naming collision noted above, where nearby addresses in a different subdivision zone to different campuses — always confirm a specific home’s schools directly with the district. Check current assignments and ratings at txschools.gov and with Cy-Fair ISD before relying on any campus list, including this one. See my Schools page for Cy-Fair campuses with ratings and maps.

Getting around & commute

Aberdeen sits in far northwest Harris County, so it’s a car-dependent location with good highway access and longer drives to the central job centers. The corridors doing the work are U.S. 290 (Northwest Freeway) to the north, Beltway 8 (Sam Houston Tollway) to the east, the Grand Parkway (TX-99) to the west, plus Highway 6, FM 1960, West Road, Barker Cypress, and Telge Road locally. The Energy Corridor and the west-side employers are the more reachable job centers; Downtown, the Galleria, and the Texas Medical Center are longer hauls. If the commute is going to make or break the move, drive it yourself at the hour you’d actually be driving it before you commit — that’s the only number that really counts.

Flood risk — what to check before you buy

Both subdivisions sit within the Addicks Reservoir watershed, which the Harris County Flood Control District publishes as roughly 138 square miles draining through Langham, South Mayde, Bear, and Horsepen creeks and their tributaries. The Addicks watershed flooded broadly in the 2016 Tax Day storm and during Hurricane Harvey in 2017, when water inside Addicks Reservoir peaked near 109 feet. Those are watershed-wide facts, though, and they don’t describe outcomes for homes inside these particular subdivisions.

Where it stands for Aberdeen: I found no subdivision-specific record of structural flooding in either Aberdeen Trails or Aberdeen Green for Harvey or the 2016 event. That’s an open question — not a clean bill of health, and not evidence of damage. Flood risk out here is property-specific and can vary street to street, sometimes lot to lot. Before you make an offer on any home here, pull its exact flood designation at the FEMA Flood Map Service Center, ask for the home’s flood history and any prior claims, and get an insurance quote inside your option period. I’ll help you check it lot by lot.

Things to do nearby

Inside the neighborhoods, the amenities are HOA-owned and open to residents: Aberdeen Trails has a pool, a park, a tennis court, and interior trails; Aberdeen Green has a pool, a park, a playground, a volleyball court, detention lakes along Aberdeen Lake Drive, and trails. Beyond the subdivisions, everyday life leans on the Copperfield area and the US-290 corridor: Easton Commons Plaza at Highway 6 and West Road is the closest anchor, with a Kroger grocery, restaurants, and smaller shops; Bear Creek Pioneers Park, one of Harris County’s larger parks, is a short drive south with sports fields, picnic areas, and open space; and the U.S. 290, Barker Cypress, and FM 1960 corridors put big-box stores, restaurants, and services within a few minutes.

Work With an Aberdeen Realtor

The single most useful thing I do in Aberdeen is make sure you’re actually looking at the neighborhood you think you’re looking at. Aberdeen Trails and Aberdeen Green are separate subdivisions with separate HOAs, separate price ranges, and different elementary zoning (Fiest for Trails, Birkes for Green) — and there’s a stretch of “Aberdeen Green Dr” in the 16000 block that isn’t even in Aberdeen Green; it’s Canyon Lakes at Stonegate, with different schools and a different association. I verify the plat, the MUD, and the school zoning on the exact parcel before we build a price or write an offer, because getting any one of those wrong is expensive to unwind later.

That kind of steering is what my clients tend to remember. As Rene C. put it in a Google review: “Kevan negotiated on my behalf, recommended the best areas to purchase a house, and gave me his honest opinion on anything I had a question about. He saved me thousands of dollars, and I will not be contacting anyone else for my real estate needs, only Kevan.”

I’m a REALTOR® and the broker-owner of Houston Prime Realty, licensed in Texas since 1989, and a Certified Residential Specialist (CRS). My clients rate me 5.0 across 229 verified HAR client surveys, and I’ve been named a Texas Monthly Five Star Real Estate Agent for 11 years running. When you work with me you work with me — the broker — through the whole transaction, not a handoff to a junior agent.

Quick Answers

What ZIP code are Aberdeen Trails and Aberdeen Green in?

Both are in 77095, in the Cypress area of unincorporated northwest Harris County, along Telge Road between West Road and U.S. 290. Aberdeen Trails is east of Telge; Aberdeen Green is west.

What’s the difference between Aberdeen Trails and Aberdeen Green?

They’re two separate subdivisions split by Telge Road, with separate plats and separate HOAs. Trails (east) has larger homes on larger lots — median about 2,736 sq ft — and a value range of roughly $330K–$402K. Green (west) is smaller and denser — median about 2,254 sq ft — with a value range of roughly $258K–$339K. They also have different elementary schools (Fiest for Trails, Birkes for Green), though both feed Labay Middle and Cypress Falls High. (HAR 2025 Facts.)

What school district serves Aberdeen?

Both subdivisions are entirely in Cypress-Fairbanks ISD (Cy-Fair ISD). Zoning is set by the exact address, so verify a specific home’s campuses at txschools.gov and with the district — especially because a nearby stretch of “Aberdeen Green Dr” belongs to a different subdivision with different schools.

What are the property taxes in Aberdeen?

About 2.23% of value combined (2025) for both subdivisions, including West Harris County MUD 14 (verified at HCAD for confirmed parcels in each). There’s no City of Houston tax because both are in the ETJ. Aberdeen Green’s HAR profile also lists MUD 15, but that reflects the nearby Canyon Lakes at Stonegate homes that share the “Aberdeen Green Dr” street name, not the Aberdeen Green subdivision — confirm the exact rate for any address at HCAD.org.

Did Aberdeen flood during Harvey?

Both subdivisions sit in the Addicks Reservoir watershed, which flooded broadly in 2016 and 2017, but no subdivision-specific flooding record for either Aberdeen Trails or Aberdeen Green was found — an open question, so treat it as unresolved. Risk is property-specific, so always check the FEMA flood map and the home’s flood history for the exact address.

Is there new construction in Aberdeen?

No — both Aberdeen Trails and Aberdeen Green are fully built out, so they’re resale markets. Buyers who want brand-new construction are generally pointed to other Cypress communities.

Who is a good Realtor for Aberdeen Trails or Aberdeen Green?

I’ve worked the Cypress and northwest Houston resale market for years and know how these two neighborhoods differ street by street — the Telge divide, the MUD question, the Fiest-versus-Birkes elementary split, and the Aberdeen-Green-Dr naming collision that trips up buyers who search by street name. I’m Kevan Pewitt, broker-owner of Houston Prime Realty, a REALTOR® and CRS with a 5.0 rating across 229 HAR client surveys. Call or text 281-500-7077 and I’ll tell you honestly which of the two fits what you’re after.
