Katy spans three counties — Harris, Fort Bend, and Waller — and its rapid new-construction growth means a lot of exterior flatwork poured over recently placed fill soil, which is exactly the kind of ground that settles unevenly in the first few years.
Master-planned communities like Cinco Ranch and Cross Creek Ranch feature large driveways and long stretches of walkway, which means more linear feet of expansion joint that can fail, and more surface area exposed to Katy's clay-influenced soil movement. Newer construction also means fill soil that's still settling, a common cause of a driveway or walkway sinking unevenly within the first several years.
