About Cinco Ranch

Serving Cinco Ranch Since 1979

Cinco Ranch is a master-planned community in the Katy area, roughly 25 miles west of Houston, sitting mainly in Fort Bend County. Water inside the community runs through the Cinco municipal utility districts, which are under Fort Bend Subsidence District mandates to cut groundwater use. Outside those district boundaries — on the acreage west and south toward Fulshear and Brookshire — private wells remain the norm, and that is where B-E Waterwell works.

Local Water Districts

Who Supplies Water in Cinco Ranch

Cinco Municipal Utility Districts

A group of districts including Cinco MUD 1, 5, 10 and 12, plus Cinco Southwest MUD 1, which serves the southwest portion of the community. Cinco MUD 1 alone serves more than 32,000 residents.

North Fort Bend Water Authority

The authority created to deliver surface water to districts in this area so they can meet subsidence mandates. Cinco MUD 10 began receiving NFBWA surface water on June 30, 2026.

Fort Bend Subsidence District

Holds jurisdiction over groundwater in Fort Bend County and mandated a 30 percent reduction in groundwater use by 2015 and 60 percent by 2025. Irrigation is a major driver here — close to 40 percent of the roughly 2.1 billion gallons used annually in Cinco MUD 1 goes to irrigation.

Permitting

Cinco Ranch falls under the Fort Bend Subsidence District rather than Harris-Galveston, and permitting requirements are similar. B-E Waterwell handles the filing as part of every job that requires one.

District boundaries in this area do not follow property lines in any obvious way, and whether a well is an option for you comes down to your specific address. If there is any confusion about which district covers your property, or whether a well makes sense for what you are trying to do, contact B-E Waterwell Services and we will sort it out with you.

Common Questions

Waterwell FAQs — Cinco Ranch, TX

Can I drill a well in Cinco Ranch?

Inside the Cinco MUD boundaries your water is supplied by the district. On acreage outside those boundaries — west and south toward Fulshear and Brookshire — private wells are common. Permitting runs through the Fort Bend Subsidence District and we handle it.

Which subsidence district covers Cinco Ranch?

The Fort Bend Subsidence District. It mandated a 30 percent reduction in groundwater use by 2015 and 60 percent by 2025, which is why the Cinco districts are converting to surface water through the North Fort Bend Water Authority.

How deep are wells around Cinco Ranch?

We were unable to pull past well-depth records specific to this area and we will not publish a figure we cannot source. Wells in the west Houston corridor generally run deeper than the counties north of Houston. Contact B-E Waterwell Services for an assessment of your site.

Do you install irrigation wells near Katy?

Yes. Irrigation is a large share of water use in this corridor — close to 40 percent of annual use in Cinco MUD 1 alone — and irrigation wells on acreage outside district boundaries are a regular part of our work.
