FAQ · ANNISTON

Good to know before you switch

Is Anniston in the Texas competitive electricity market?

Yes. ZIP 77493 is CenterPoint / ERCOT Houston-zone territory—you choose a retail electric provider; CenterPoint delivers and restores outages.

When should new Anniston buyers shop for power?

Before or at closing. New construction often needs a first-time REP enrollment with a meter set / start date coordinated to move-in—compare plans early so service starts on day one.

Does the HOA pick my electric company?

No. The Anniston Community Association does not choose your Retail Electric Provider. You shop and enroll; CenterPoint still owns the wires.

Who do I call if the power goes out in Anniston?

Call CenterPoint Energy at 713-207-2222 (or use CenterPoint’s outage map). Your retail supplier bills energy; it does not restore lines.

What school district serves Anniston?

Katy ISD. Community welcome materials list McElwain Elementary, Nelson Junior High, and Freeman High School—always verify your lot on Katy ISD’s zoning tools.

Is water City of Katy or a MUD?

WattKarma’s LP lists Harris County MUD No. 539 for water/sewer—confirm on your closing docs; do not assume City of Katy utility billing.

Are community amenities finished?

Amenities are phased. Walking trails exist; parks, lakes, pool, and recreation center have been described as future/in-development on builder and HOA materials—check current status with the association.

Why compare usage-based plans for a new Lennar home?

New homes often have different HVAC loads and square footage than resale averages. Price plans at your expected kWh (or builder estimate), not just the cheapest advertised ¢/kWh.

Will switching electricity plans change who restores outages?

No. CenterPoint Energy continues to deliver power and restore outages whichever Retail Electric Provider (REP) you choose. Switching changes who bills you for energy, not who maintains the lines.

Does it cost anything to compare plans on WattKarma?

No. Comparing plans on WattKarma is free and there is no obligation to switch.
