Cypress is an unincorporated part of Harris County with about 200,000 residents (2020) in ZIP codes 77429 and 77433. Bridgeland is an 11,500-acre master-planned community between US 290 and I-10.
City and county rules
Because Cypress is unincorporated, there is no city fence code. Harris County's permit page does not mention fences and says floodplain work must follow county rules. A third-party guide says fences may qualify for a simplified minor permit unless the property is in a floodplain, but that is not an official source. Call the county before you build.
Bridgeland has four villages (Lakeland, Parkland, Prairieland and Creekland), each with its own community association and modification guidelines. We did not find the guidelines online in an official place.

About this area
Cypress grew along Cypress Creek from German farm settlements in the 1840s and is now a large unincorporated area of northwest Harris County. Bridgeland, a Howard Hughes community of roughly 11,500 acres between US 290 and I-10, is divided into villages with their own character, including Lakeland, Parkland, Prairieland and Creekland. Because most of the area is unincorporated, the association and your floodplain status usually matter more than a city fence code.
