Adjacent to The Woodlands, Magnolia was settled in the late 1840s and today calls itself “the community of unity.” It has been awarded the Recognized Scenic City Certification by Scenic Texas. The area retains its small-town charm even as it becomes a popular location for large-lot communities, especially those that can accommodate horses.

The central business district is known as “Magnolia Town Center” and is located along FM 1488 and FM 1774.
