About Conroe
What you're shopping for power in.
Conroe is the Montgomery County seat, sitting just north of The Woodlands on I-45. It's grown from a 1980s timber-and-oil town into one of the fastest-growing cities in the country, with new master-planned communities filling former pine forest.
Climate & bill pattern
Inland version of the Houston climate — slightly drier in winter, but the same long humid AC season.
Heavy new-construction mix — 2,400-3,200 sq ft homes with central HVAC are typical. Tankless gas water heaters are common, which keeps electric usage somewhat in check vs. all-electric homes.
