The Houston region is comprised of 10 counties: Montgomery, Harris, San Jacinto, Chambers, Fort Bend, Liberty, Austin, Waller, Galveston and Brazoria. More than 5 million people call the Houston region home. The region offers businesses access to the largest port in the United States, the largest medical center in the world - the Texas Medical Center, and more energy industry corporate headquarters than anywhere in the world.
