Located in Manvel, Texas, Valencia by Hillwood is built with the well-being of its residents in mind. With its comprehensive flood prevention strategies and wind-resistant home designs, the community stands prepared to face the Houston area’s unpredictable storm seasons. Here’s how Valencia ensures safety, comfort, and peace of mind for its residents
Planning Ahead: A Community Built for Resilience
At Valencia, preparedness is a cornerstone. Thoughtfully planned flood mitigation efforts have ensured that all homes are situated outside the 100-year floodplain, giving residents additional protection against the region’s heavy rains and hurricanes. By raising the ground levels in key areas and securing FEMA-approved revisions to the flood maps, Valencia has taken concrete steps to ensure the safety of its homes.
Valencia’s developers didn’t stop there. The community was designed to prevent the widespread flooding that can often occur in other Houston-area neighborhoods. Streets and infrastructure are strategically planned to manage stormwater efficiently, keeping roads passable even during periods of intense rainfall. Unlike many communities where streets become temporary detention areas during storms, Valencia's flood-free streets remained safe and accessible for residents during Hurricane Beryl, providing confidence and convenience even in extreme weather conditions.
Wind Protection You Can Count On
Living in the greater Houston area means being prepared for hurricanes and tropical storms. Valencia’s homes are windstorm-rated to withstand winds up to 120 mph, offering critical protection during hurricane season. This important feature ensures that the homes at Valencia are well-equipped to handle high winds that often accompany Houston’s storm patterns.
Proximity to Major Evacuation Routes
Safety extends beyond the home at Valencia. Conveniently located near major evacuation routes, including highways 288 and 6, residents can feel secure knowing they have quick access to safe exit routes during hurricane season. This proximity ensures that if evacuation becomes necessary, Valencia families have a clear, efficient path to safety.
Designed for a Secure Future
By combining innovative floodplain management, superior construction standards, and strategic location planning, Valencia by Hillwood offers a secure, resilient environment for its residents. In a region prone to severe weather, the peace of mind that comes from living in a community that prioritizes safety is invaluable.
With its strong foundation and dedication to safety, Valencia is ready to withstand whatever the next storm season brings.
