**Katy Mills** is a shopping mall in Katy, Texas, within the Houston–Sugar Land–Baytown metropolitan area, developed and managed by Mills Corporation. The mall opened on October 28, 1999 and hosted a variety of over 200 specialty stores. Katy Mills has about 1.3 million square feet (0.12 km²) of retail space.

## Shopping Center

Katy Mills is a one-story facility that sits on 1.3 square miles (3.4 km2) of land, located just off Interstate 10 exit 741. The mall is built with a "racetrack" design and one complete pass around the mall on Katy Mills Cir. road is approximately 1 mile (1.6 km).

Popular stores include H&M, Tommy Hilfiger Company Store, Books-A-Million, Kate Spade New York and Polo Ralph Lauren Company Store; some of which relocated from Sealy Outlet Center, which was supplanted by Katy Mills due to its distance from nearby Sealy. Its food court has Burger King, a carousel, and a bungee trampoline. Outside, various restaurants such as Red Lobster, Fuddruckers, T.G.I. Friday's, and Los Cucos surround the mall.

Originally, the mall featured Midnight Rodeo, which opened in 2002 and closed in 2007 and became a Circuit City prototype called "The City", which opened in 2008. Because Circuit City filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2009, it closed and it is now Ross Dress for Less as of 2014.

The mall also once featured the Jillian's restaurant and entertainment center. It closed in 2004 and became Steve & Barry's the following year, which, in 2008 was closed. An expansion happened in 2013 and the stores became Jumpstreet and Segway Outback which itself closed in 2019.

The mall also once featured Harold-Powell, which, in 2004 was closed and became Last Call by Neiman Marcus, which was closed in August 2020. In 2022, an expansion was made splitting the store once again to prepare for the opening of The Cheesecake Factory and a new store adjacent to The Cheesecake Factory in 2022.

In July 2009, Newer stores opened up, such as Victoria's Secret, Papaya and XXI Forever, replacing RadioShack, The Athlete's Foot, Kirkland's Outlet, and Liz Claiborne (moved to Juicy Couture before becoming Kate Spade in 2014), respectively

Johnny Rockets was also featured since the opening of the mall, but it closed in 2010 and became DC Shoes in 2012. As of 2016, it’s now Jared Vault.

In 2012, Tilt Studio opened in the space F.Y.E. formerly occupied.

In 2014, Old Navy was relocated next to Burlington in Neighborhood 5 and its old location is now H&M.
On Summer 2016, Bed Bath and Beyond closed and briefly became DR34M Home Rug and Design, which opened in early 2017 and it is now Restoration Hardware Outlet as of October 2017.

The mall once featured a Casual Corner Annex store. It has become Lane Bryant in 2006 before relocating in front of Burlington in Neighborhood 5 and its old location was replaced with A'GACI in 2010 before becoming Aéropostale/P.S. from Aéropostale in 2015.

In 2015, G. H. Bass and Co. Outlet relocated to the former space of Rainbow, next to Hot Topic in Neighborhood 7 and its old location has become Adidas and Luxury Beauty Store. A week later, Lane Bryant was relocated near Ross so that Bass would relocate to Lane Bryant's former space. In 2016, Hot Topic briefly relocated next to Off Broadway Shoes while its former location has been renovating to prepare for the reopening of the original space as well as the new space for Footlocker, which originally was located in front of GAP Outlet in Neighborhood 6.

In 2018, Katy Mills started to renovate with a tile floor smash. The interior renovation was completed in 2019.
The entire shopping mall is located within Fort Bend County, Texas, although a future anchor space and a small portion of the parking lot is located in neighboring Harris County.
