The Location
Sam Houston State University
Sam Houston State University (SHSU) is a prestigious institution that attracts students from across the country. SHSU is renowned for its criminal justice program, business school, and robust research initiatives, contributing to the city’s intellectual vibrancy and economic development.
The university has experienced a steady increase in full-time enrollment, growing by 4.53% YoY. This includes a 2.55% rise in undergraduate students, demonstrating continued demand for on-campus and nearby housing options. Notably, graduate enrollment has surged by an impressive 32%, signaling a heightened interest in advanced education programs and a potential shift in housing needs toward more flexible and upscale living arrangements. This sustained growth is expected to drive higher demand for student housing, contributing to stronger market occupancy rates and upward pressure on rental prices in the coming years. As enrollment trends continue this trajectory, investors and property owners can anticipate increased stability and long-term appreciation in the local rental market.
