Built around a railroad stop, Willis grew into a small city in Montgomery County, north of Houston. The rail corridor still runs through its compact centre, recalling the settlement’s nineteenth-century origins and its place on the route between Houston and the East Texas interior. Lake Conroe lies southwest of town; this reservoir on the West Fork of the San Jacinto River supports boating, fishing and lakeside recreation. Willis stands where Houston’s metropolitan orbit meets the piney-woods character of southeast Texas, with Interstate 45 as its main road connection.
