Pearland

Pearland lies along Clear Creek on Texas’s Gulf Coastal Plain, where level, low-lying ground marks the transition between metropolitan Houston and the coast. Once a small agricultural community named for the pear trees cultivated here, it has grown into one of Houston’s major southern suburbs while retaining a strong local identity. The Sri Meenakshi Temple, a Hindu temple complex dedicated to the goddess Meenakshi, is among Pearland’s best-known cultural landmarks and serves a broad regional community. The city also provides easy access to greater Houston’s museums, dining districts and sporting venues.
