This is a list of people who have served as mayor of the city of Houston in the U.S. state of Texas.

Until 2015, the term of the mayor was two years. Beginning with the tenure of Bob Lanier, the city charter imposed term limits on officeholders of no more than three terms (six years total). On November 3, 2015, voters approved Proposition 2, which extended the terms of the Mayor, City Controller and City Councilmembers to four years, while imposing a limit of two terms.

As of January 2016^[update], five former mayors were alive, the oldest being Lee Brown (1998–2004, born 1937). The most recent mayor to die was Bob Lanier (1992–1998), on December 20, 2014.
