Settegast is a neighborhood in northeast Houston; it has an average population density between one and five.[1] The community is bordered by the 610 Loop, the Union Pacific Railroad Settegast Yard,[2][3] and the old Beaumont Highway. The community has many small, wood-framed houses and empty lots. Habitat for Humanity has a prominent stake in the area,[4] and a community garden is underway. There are few commercial and industrial uses within Settegast.[5] Also, contemporary housing has started to arise within new construction in the area. The City of Houston designated Settegast as a Houston HOPE neighborhood.[6]
