Stagecoach, Texas
Stagecoach is a small town in Montgomery County, in the wooded country on the northwest side of the greater Houston area. It lies roughly 14 miles west of The Woodlands, in the transition zone between the Piney Woods and the rolling prairie, where pine and hardwood stands break up the open land. The community is chiefly residential, made up of homesteads spread across a lightly developed rural setting.
Property here runs through the Montgomery Central Appraisal District and the county tax office — the homestead exemption, the appraisal cap, protests, and any MUD, PID, or special districts all sit at the parcel level. The Montgomery County notes below cover the practical details, with the official county directory for the appraisal district and tax office.
