Ever since joining the Houston Astros in August 2017, MLB pitcher Justin Verlander and his model wife Kate Upton have had an ever-growing presence in the Texas city.

When the MLB All-Star isn't traveling between stadiums and Upton's not fleeting from shoot to shoot, you can find the couple in the Bayou City having a bite to eat at their fave spots.


Where do Justin Verlander and Kate Upton live?

While their home base isn't currently confirmed, they are often spotted at Minute Maid Park sharing adorable postgame snapshots of their three-year-old daughter Genevieve and celebrating with the whole family during postseason wins

The Verlanders have previously shared some of their top eateries and dropped hints on their favorite Space City neighborhood.

This past August, the athlete revealed he loves a good burger from Nancy's Hustle in east downtown, and the owners even consider them "regulars."

Do Kate Upton and Justin Verlander live in Houston?

The couple also once told the New York Times that the city's vibrant Montrose area is their favorite place to walk around, especially on a less crowded evening. While the location of their Houston neighborhood is not established, you just might spot them around at a small boutique, coffee shop, or even a free fine art exhibit, The Menil Collection, that they love to explore.

The couple has spent the last five years in Texas and will continue to for the rest of Verlander's 2022 season with the Astros.

It's currently unclear what the Cy Young Award winner will do once this year is up or if he'll stay with the Texas team, but we know his family has shown much love for the Bayou City.
