Welcome to Houston. We're growers, creators, innovators, educators and a whole lot more. We work hard, but enjoy rural valley life in our little corner of the driftless in Southeast Minnesota. Most of all, we're proud of our community and invite you share it with us. 

​

Visit, live in, or dream of scenic bluff country, have a hoot at the International Owl Center, explore our parks and trails, experience local events and businesses or just plain have a good time.

​

Referred to as "the best of bluff country" by locals, our little corner of Minnesota offers breaktaking scenery, a playground for outdoor enthusiasts, a place for arts and culture to take root, and business opportunities within the Driftless. Within the Root River Valley, the city of Houston is a charming, small-town place to visit, stay, or do business while offering close proximity to larger area markets and amenities.
