Hedwig Village is a city in Harris County, Texas, United States. The population was 2,370 at the 2020 census.[4]

History

The Spring Branch Memorial area was originally settled by German immigrants in the 19th century. Hedwig Village's name originates from Hedwig Road, which was built on the property of Hedwig Jankowski Schroeder; Schroeder emigrated from Germany to Texas in 1906 to help her sister operate a business in Houston. There she met, and married, Henry Schroeder, son of Jacob Schroeder, one of the area's earliest immigrants. They established their home and farmed in the area now known as Hedwig Village.

In the mid 1950s, efforts to form a Spring Branch municipality failed.[5] Hedwig Village was incorporated on December 23, 1954 and established a zoning ordinance in 1955.[6] Because of the 1955 incorporation, Houston did not incorporate Hedwig Village's territory into its city limits, while Houston annexed surrounding areas that were unincorporated.[7] Hedwig Village incorporated because residents feared that Houston would annex them. Around 1963, residents of Hedwig Villages and other Memorial villages wanted what Gia Gustilo of the Houston Chronicle referred to as "a more country-like atmosphere in close proximity to Houston."[8] Laverne Coller, a resident, quoted in the Houston Chronicle who moved to Hedwig Village in 1963, was paraphrased by Gustilo as "Hedwig Village is unique among the villages in that it was the only municipality to accept the existing commercial sector, which was quite a bonus to the city's revenues."[8]

In 1960, the city had 1,182 residents. By 1966, the community had two schools, one library, and two churches. By 1970, the city had 3,255 residents, and in 1971 the city completed a park. The city had 3,994 residents in 1980 and 2,616 in 1990.[6] Coller said in 2003 that many children of early Hedwig Village residents had begun to settle the Hedwig Village area.[8] In 2003 Coller, as paraphrased by Gustilo, said "Despite the changes, several of her old neighbors remain and the camaraderie with new residents is good."[8]

Geography

Map of Hedwig Village

Hedwig Village is located at 29°46′48″N 95°31′10″W / 29.78000°N 95.51944°W / 29.78000; -95.51944 (29.779990, –95.519412).[9]

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 0.9 square miles (2.3 km2), all land. This makes Hedwig Village one of the smallest municipalities in Harris County. Hedwig Village is 10 miles (16 km) from Downtown Houston.[8]

Cityscape

When Hedwig Village was first established, houses were similar to ranch houses and there were more private dirt roads than paved streets. Katy Road (now Interstate 10, Katy Freeway) had many neighborhood stores, according to Laverne Coller.[8]

In 2003, Edith Spang, a former librarian at the Spring Branch Memorial Branch Library quoted in the Houston Chronicle, said that as time passed, the civic locations, including the library; the medical care facilities; the shopping venues; and the traffic were all parts of Hedwig Village's growth[8] Spang remarked that Hedwig Village "has definitely changed along with the other villages. It's lost the sleepy little country atmosphere."[8] Coller said that none of the stores that had originally existed when she moved still existed by 2003.[8]
