Mission is a great place to rear a family. There are excellent medical and educational facilities, and efficient emergency services help to insure safety. Mission offers the advantages of city living without the congestion, pollution, and noise. Comfortable homes, convenient shopping, and a multitude of recreational activities are assets of the community. You’ll find friendly people to make you feel at home as two cultures, each retaining its identity, share common interests and goals.

The population of Mission has nearly doubled in size over the last decade and will most likely do the same this decade with the help of two beautiful master planned communities under development. Bentsen Palm Development, a 2,600 acre retirement age targeted community with a focus on the environment, wildlife and native habitats, is located on south Bentsen Palm Drive. Hunt Valley Development’s Sharyland Plantation, located on south Shary Road, is home to the Pepsi Sports Park and several residential neighborhoods, as well as some commercial areas. We’re proud of our city, and we invite you to come and visit - or come and stay - in either case, we think you’ll Savor Mission!
