Are there any dense walkable neighborhoods in Houston?

I’m looking for a dense, vibrant, urban, progressive, walkable neighborhood in Houston. A place that is full of shops, restaurants, bars/clubs, businesses and residential walk-up apartments all closely knit together… closely enough to where someone could walk between all of these places and could spend the day/evening out in that neighborhood ***without a car***. What is the best neighborhood for this in Houston???

Montrose, Midtown, Downtown, Houston Heights, and the Museum District are all good, safe walkable neighbourhoods in Houston. Downtown and the Museum District are well-connected with light rail, and all of the neighbourhoods I listed have good bus service if you get sick of walking.

    The Galleria area is walkable in Houston, and it fits your criteria.

    You forgot to mention safety too. i like to walk in downtown but a lot of weird and/or homeless people walk there too.
    Rice Village reminds me of Berkeley CA, but it’s still remotely close. Good for jogging in that area though.
