Electoral Area G (Houston Rural) is the rural area surrounding the District of Houston and the Village of Granisle. The unincorporated communities within the area are Fort Babine, Kuldo, Smithers Landing, Topley, and Topley Landing.

The area around the town of Houston is fast becoming a hiker's paradise.  Many kilometers of trails at all skill levels are built and maintained yearly.  These trails are giving the tourism sector a boost and creating many opportunities for business.

The Forestry and Mining sectors continue to be the major industries in Area G.  Houston Forest Products, Huckleberry Mine and several mineral exploration companies operate in the area.  Huckleberry Mines is an open pit copper/molybdenum mine located very close to the Electoral Area G border..  On January 2, 2012 the Main Zone Optimization Expansion Project got the go ahead. The expansion will create more employment opportunities in all areas of the Mine's operations over the next ten years.  Huckleberry Mines presently employs 300 people.
