The Briar Forest neighborhood is located just on the outskirts of downtown Houston which puts it directly in the middle of a very popular real estate area. People love the Briar Forest area and other surrounding neighborhoods because commuting to a job anywhere in Houston requires almost no driving and of course there are plenty of businesses and shops nearby as well that are easy to get to. Getting out of the city is easy as well thanks to easy access to multiple state and interstate highways that are close by; transportation is never an issue thanks to the highway system in the area.
