Market Overview
Performance figures on this page describe the Greater Houston area STR market, a regional series that includes Humble, so the numbers reflect the wider metro rather than Humble alone. In September 2026 the average daily rate was $145, occupancy was 53.5%, and the average listing earned $2,165 for the month. Compared with September 2025, occupancy is up 1.0%, ADR is up 8.8%, and monthly revenue is down 1.8%. Rates are rising faster than bookings, yet revenue per listing slipped slightly over the year.
Humble itself is a small Harris County city of 16,521 residents, roughly 20 minutes north of downtown Houston and adjacent to George Bush Intercontinental Airport. Lodging demand here is mostly regional and pass-through rather than destination tourism. Guests include airport-adjacent travelers, business visitors, and shoppers drawn to Deerbrook Mall and the surrounding retail corridor. Mercer Botanic Gardens, the Humble Museum, and the Charles Bender Performing Arts Center add local reasons to stay. No city or visitor bureau visitor counts were published, so annual visitation cannot be quantified.
Revenue differs by property type. Entire places averaged $2,423 in September 2026, houses averaged $2,334, and apartments averaged $1,883. Entire-place ADR was $166, above the all-listings average of $145. Bedroom, booking channel, and listing-type counts are tracked at a shared regional level rather than uniquely for Humble, so this profile omits them.
For 2026 through September, the regional series shows 56.3% occupancy, a $166 ADR, and $2,604 in average monthly revenue, compared with 57.6%, $152, and $2,473 for full-year 2025. That points to a market where rate growth is carrying results while occupancy sits a little lower. The 2024 full-year figure of $2,543 per month came with 59.6% occupancy at a $152 ADR, so 2026 has already passed that revenue level on higher rates.

Short-Term Rental Regulations
Short-term rentals appear to be permitted in Humble, and enforcement is rated minimal. Humble is a small incorporated city in Harris County, separate from the City of Houston, so Houston’s 2025 and 2026 STR registration ordinance does not apply within Humble city limits.
No verifiable City of Humble short-term rental ordinance, permit requirement, fee schedule, occupancy cap, or owner-occupancy rule could be confirmed from a government or primary source. One third-party property management site claims Humble requires a permit and registration fee under Chapter 94 of its code of ordinances, but that citation does not match Humble’s actual code structure and could not be corroborated, so it is treated as unreliable. As of this research, no confirmed city-specific STR licensing regime exists.
Operators are still subject to the Texas state hotel occupancy tax of 6%. Texas cities may also levy a city hotel occupancy tax of up to 7%, and Harris County lodging taxes in the Houston area are commonly about 2% for the county plus about 2% for the sports authority. Humble’s specific local rate was not verified from a primary source.
No recent City of Humble STR rule changes were found. Small Texas cities often add or change STR rules with little public indexing, so investors should confirm directly with the City of Humble Finance Department and the building and permitting office before operating.
Market Comparison
This profile does not benchmark against national figures. In September 2026 the Greater Houston area STR market averaged a $145 ADR and 53.5% occupancy.
Higher tiers earn more per night. Entire places averaged $166, professionally managed listings $172, and luxury listings $254.
The lower rate level is partly offset by a modest entry cost, with a typical Humble home value of $255,832. Occupancy is also moving the right way, up 1.0% year over year, while ADR is up 8.8%.
Top operators are tracked at a shared regional level rather than uniquely for Humble, so this profile omits them. For investors, the case rests on steady metro demand and lower purchase prices rather than premium rates.
