Pearland Regional Airport (ICAO: KLVJ, FAA LID: LVJ) is in Brazoria County, Texas, near Pearland in Greater Houston, 17 miles (27 km) south of Downtown Houston. It was formerly Clover Field.

Most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, but Pearland Regional Airport is LVJ to the FAA and has no IATA code.

It was in the Pearland city limits from November 27, 2017, until March 26, 2018.

Facilities

The airport covers 450 acres (180 ha); its single runway, 14/32, is 4,313 x 75 ft (1315 x 23 m) concrete. In the year ending May 30, 2000 the airport had 87,125 aircraft operations, average 238 per day: 99.7% general aviation and 0.3% air taxi. 175 aircraft were then based at the airport: 94% single-engine, 2% multi-engine and 4% helicopter.

History

The airport was built in 1947 by Perry Brown and covered 320 acres at the time. Clover Acquisition purchased the property in 1957 and subsequently renamed it Clover Field. In 2003 the name was changed to Pearland Regional Airport.

The land with the airport, "Area L", is an unincorporated area; it was annexed by the City of Pearland on November 27, 2017. However, in March 2018 the Pearland city council voted to deannex the territory. It was de-annexed effective March 26, 2018.
