The Surge Take: Humble

Humble scores 54.1/100 on Surge's STR market score, ranking #38 of 53 Houston-area submarkets we track. That's in the lower tier of the Houston market on our score, which usually reflects thinner guest demand. Deals here need to be underwritten conservatively — the entry price has to do the heavy lifting. The average listing here grosses $34,286/year — about 10% above the Houston metro average.

The revenue profile is a $201 average daily rate at 55% occupancy (RevPAR $94). That's a healthy mid-market ADR — the sweet spot for durable demand from both leisure and work travel. As a suburban submarket, demand skews toward families, relocations, and medical or project stays — larger homes tend to outperform.

On the regulatory side, Humble falls under Humble, which is currently permissive: No city STR ordinance; Houston's STR rules do NOT apply here. Low regulatory friction is a real advantage — just verify HOA and deed restrictions, which apply regardless of city or county rules.

Humble STR Regulations

Permissive

Jurisdiction: Humble · Last verified 2026-07-14

No city STR ordinance; Houston's STR rules do NOT apply here

Humble has no city-level STR ordinance and no registration requirement for STRs within its corporate limits. Importantly, Houston's January 2024 STR registration ordinance (requiring $275 annual registration and platform compliance) does not apply to Humble, which is a separate incorporated city within Harris County. Humble enforces general nuisance, noise, building, and fire codes that apply regardless of STR status. STR operators should collect and remit state and any applicable local HOT.

What operators need to know
  • No STR-specific permit or registration required
  • General nuisance, noise, and building codes apply
  • Texas state HOT registration required
  • Harris County HOT may apply if technically in unincorporated area
  • Check HOA/deed restrictions
Hotel Occupancy Tax
6% state + local HOT (Humble levies city HOT; exact rate unconfirmed)

HOA covenants and deed restrictions can prohibit short-term rentals regardless of Humble rules — always review them before purchasing. Surge handles permitting, registration, and Hotel Occupancy Tax compliance for every property we manage.
