Texas Gov. Abbott calls for action on ‘colony’ near Houston accused of being ‘haven for illegal aliens’

Texas’ top elected officials are demanding investigations into a sprawling housing development near Houston alleged to be causing “chaos” by attracting “illegal immigrants.”

Colony Ridge, 35 miles north of Houston, is home to as many as 75,000 people in an area at least 50 percent bigger than Manhattan.

The Post revealed the scale of concerns in September as neighbors claimed it is a “no-go area,” a home to criminals and drug cartels, and a magnet for “illegal immigration.”

Opponents accuse Colony Ridge’s developers, the billionaire brothers John and Trey Harris brothers of preying on people, especially migrants, by advertising a fantasy of suburban home ownership that in reality, they allege, is a vast, shoddily constructed, environmentally unsafe trailer park run on predatory lending practices.
