Inwood Forest, Houston

Inwood Forest is a community in northwest Houston, Texas, United States.
==History==
Land in what is now Inwood Forest was originally Native American hunting grounds. In the 1860s German American farmers settled along the White Oak Bayou. For a 100 year period until 1963, the Fuchs family owned the land that would become Inwood Forest and surrounding subdivisions; during that year a real estate developer bought the land. Many of the original houses in Inwood Forest were developed for oil company executives.〔 Wayne Norden, the president of the Near Northwest Management District, stated in 2011 that Inwood Forest was a different kind of neighborhood in the 1970s than in the 2010s.〔Lee, Renée C. "(Demolition signals new life for neighborhood )." ''Houston Chronicle''. February 7, 2011. Retrieved on February 8, 2011.〕 The City of Houston annexed the Inwood Forest area in 1975, adding of land to the city limits.〔Lee, Renée C. "(Annexed Kingwood split on effects )." ''Houston Chronicle''. Sunday October 8, 2006. A21. Retrieved on July 6, 2011. Print version exclusively has the information cited; the information is ''not'' included in the online edition.〕 The neighborhood began to change after a recession in the late 1980s. Many businesses shut down, and former residents moved to suburbs.〔
Dennie Hodge, an Inwood Forest resident quoted in the ''Houston Chronicle'', said that around three fourths of the houses in her neighborhood flooded during Tropical Storm Allison. After Hurricane Katrina, evacuees from the hurricane poured into the Houston area. The occupancy rates of apartments around Inwood Forest increased from the 40 to 60 percent range to almost 100 percent.〔 Julie Grothues, president of the Inwood Forest Community Improvement Association, said in a 2008 ''Houston Chronicle'' article that she saw children playing in the streets of Inwood Forest while she did not see any in 1978.〔
Throughout several years leading to 2011, the City of Houston had demolished older apartment complexes. In 2011 the city demolished the Gables Apartments.〔
