The MH Middle Housing district is a College Station zoning classification that permits a flexible mix of housing products, including small-lot single-family homes, townhouses, courtyard houses, duplexes, small multiplexes (3-4 units), medium multiplexes (5-12 units), and live-work units. Its standards are distributed throughout the Unified Development Ordinance: UDO Sections 5.1 and 5.2 provide the housing types, lot sizes, setbacks, and dimensional standards, with additional buffer, height protection, and parking standards that apply to the larger residential products and along district edges.

Beyond establishing zoning districts and their permitted uses, the Unified Development Ordinance regulates development standards for subdivisions and site plans, parking requirements, landscaping and buffering standards, building height restrictions, setback requirements, and nonconforming uses and structures. Zoning District Fact Sheets published by the city show the purpose, permitted uses, and supplemental standards for each district.
