What Kingwood does
to a microwave.

Friendswood Development Company, an Exxon subsidiary, and King Ranch opened its first village in 1971.

Houston annexed Kingwood in the mid-1990s over residents' objections, adding about 43,000 people with Jacintoport.

In ZIP code 77345, 70 percent of housing units were built between 1980 and 1999.

Newer developments

After the first ten years, the original microwaves in a development begin asking for magnetrons and touchpads in the same stretch of seasons, and a visit also confirms each unit still hangs square on its wall plate.

Family houses

In a family house the microwave warms bottles, snacks and leftovers from dawn to bedtime, and its door latch and turntable wear out ahead of anything else inside it.

Kitchens that host

Party cooking runs the microwave in short bursts for hours, reheating trays and softening butter, and every opening wears the latch and interlocks, so a door that needs a second push is repaired before the next event.

When a microwave
cannot wait in Kingwood.

In Kingwood as anywhere, these five mean the microwave stays switched off until a technician has seen it: sparks or a flame inside, smoke behind the window, a burning smell, a breaker that drops, or a door that no longer seals.
