Texas

Texas Township, southwest of Kalamazoo, is known for its rural character, larger properties, and relatively upscale housing stock, including newer custom-built homes on generous lots. The area has grown steadily as buyers seek more space and privacy while remaining within a reasonable drive of Kalamazoo's job centers and amenities. Portage Public Schools and Mattawan both serve portions of the township, adding to its family appeal. Texas Township maintains a quieter, more spread-out feel compared to neighboring Oshtemo, with less commercial density and more agricultural and wooded land. It's a strong fit for buyers prioritizing acreage, newer construction, and a semi-rural lifestyle.
