Canyon Lake is a private gated community built around a stunning 383-acre recreational lake with nearly 4,800 homes. It's one of those rare places where the lifestyle actually lives up to the setting — golf cart-friendly roads, fishing, boating, watersports, waterfront parks, and a packed calendar of community events keep things lively year-round.
The community has its own clubs, and throughout the year residents come together for events like Fiesta Days (the summer kick-off), the 4th of July fireworks show, and the beloved Holiday Boat Parade.
Canyon Lake has roots going back to the late 1920s when a dam was built to impound the San Jacinto River, forming what was then called Railroad Canyon Reservoir — a local escape for fishing, hunting, and camping. Development of the master-planned community began in the late 1960s, the city was incorporated in 1990, and today it's a fully built-out, active community with something going on for just about everyone.
11,107 people live in Canyon Lake, where the median age is 46.6 and the average individual income is $55,877. Data provided by the U.S. Census Bureau.
