Houston is the largest electric-heat city on the network: 64% of its 930,404 occupied housing units heat with electricity and 34% with natural gas, with oil and propane nearly absent (Census ACS 2020-2024, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US4835000, checked 2026-10-21). Of the 1,040,576 total units, 43% are single-family detached, 44% sit in buildings of five or more units, and 7% in two- to four-unit buildings (Census ACS 2020-2024, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US4835000, checked 2026-10-21), and 30% of the stock was built in 2000 or later while only 4% predates 1940 (Census ACS 2020-2024, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US4835000, checked 2026-10-21). Most Houston homes already run on electric resistance strip heat or a gas furnace paired with central AC, so a heat pump swap keeps the same duct runs and thermostat wiring, and the question is cooling-dominated: the system needs to handle 95-degree days with high humidity before it needs to handle a 25-degree night, which means the installer picks the outdoor unit for latent capacity and dehumidification, not just sensible BTUs.
Slab houses with attic ducts are the stock. A gas furnace and a central AC is the default pair.
