Delivery is regulated through AEP Texas Central as TDU. Energy supply is competitive—you choose among licensed REPs. Compare the Electricity Facts Label at your expected kWh usage.

Which internet providers serve 77483?

Common options marketed in the Greater Houston / Fort Bend belt include AT&T Fiber, Xfinity, and Spectrum, but availability is address-specific. Use each provider’s checker with your full street address.

What should I do before digging or landscaping?

Call 811 (Texas 811) several business days before digging so underground utilities can be marked. Hitting a gas or electric line can be deadly and costly.

Why might my 77483 neighbor have different water or electric providers?

Fort Bend / Harris / Waller / Matagorda ZIPs often mix cities, MUDs, and (in Matagorda/Wharton) co-ops. Utility boundaries follow meters and districts—not ZIP labels. Always match your bill and appraisal district record.
