Piney Point Village is a city in Harris County, Texas, located on the west side of Houston. The Village has a total area of 2.1 square miles, all of it land. The City of Piney Point was founded in 1954 with an alderman form of government. As of the census of 2010, there were 3,125 people, 1,064 households, and 945 families residing in the city. As of 2010, Piney Point Village is the wealthiest location in Texas by per capita income. In 1824, John D. Taylor received a land grant from Stephen F. Austin for a league centered on “pine point” at the southernmost turn of Buffalo Bayou. Taylor’s house became known as Piney Point. Our research does not tell us why Taylor selected this land so distant from other settlements in the area. It may have been due to its resources of water and timber or its natural location as a stopping point between John Harris’s settlement of Harrisburg and Stephen F. Austin’s headquarters in San Felipe de Austin.
In 1844, the Board of Roads and Revenues of Harris County approved a public road from Houston (founded in 1836) to Piney Point and on to the county line. y 1885, Piney Point was a station on the Texas Western Railroad and was part of a settlement of largely German farmers. In 1936, state highway maps located Piney Point near several sawmills in the area. In 1954 Piney Point was incorporated with an alderman form of government and by 1966 had a public school and four churches.
