No 19th Century
history. Oak Ridge North is a suburb of Houston
developed in 1964. Oak Ridge North’s development coincided with the
completion of Interstate 45, providing the community with an instant
boost in population. It incorporated in 1979 when 2,445 residents
were reported. The oil bust in the mid 1980s reduced growth and the
population grew stagnant. The 1990 census reported just nine more
residents than the 1979 figures. |
