The Texas Medical Center contains 45 medical institutions, including 13 hospitals, 2 specialty institutions, two medical schools,  four nursing schools, and schools of dentistry, pharmacy, and public health. The Texas Medical Center receives over 5 million total visits per year.  Houston Medical Center apartments also cater to college students who attend the nearby Rice University and the University of Houston.  Patients also fly in from all over the world to receive special care and assistance.  You can only imagine the demand for short term housing; and thus a need for apartment living.  Houston Medical center apartments can range from extremely economical apartments to high rise apartment living.  The cheapest medical center apartments will begin in the mid $500’s per month; while some of the most expensive will begin in the $2000 Mosaic at Hermann Park.  The Houston Light Rail also travels through the Texas Medical Center. The Lanesbrough and The Greenbriar are two Houston Medical Center apartments just off the Metro Light Rail.  Both of these apartment homes provide great access for renters who need immediate access to the Light Rail.  The Light Rail is also a fantastic option if you desire to head North towards the Downtown Houston area too. The Museum District is also in close proximity and provides some high end apartment living for those who desire a more luxurious community. The most popular communities in this are the Plaza Museum District, The Esplanade at Hermann Museum Circle, and The Lofts at Hermann Park. The latter community is the only Loft property in the Museum District. Concrete flooring, spiral duct work, and  brick and concrete walls all contribute to the true loft living. Of course the interiors will contain stainless steel appliances and the community amenities will include billiards tables, WiFi, and a state of the art Fitness Center.
