Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel to Camden Property Trust, a Texas real
estate investment trust (the "Company"), in connection with the
Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") filed
by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, relating to the offer and sale of
up to 1,713,234 shares of the Company's Common Shares of Beneficial
Interest, $0.01 par value per share (the "Common Shares"), that may be
issued pursuant to the Company's 1993 Share Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). 
 
     In connection with this opinion, we have examined and are familiar
with originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our
satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records, certificates of
public officials and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or
advisable in connection with this opinion, including the Company's
Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust, the Company's Amended and
Restated Bylaws and the Plan.  In our examination we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the
authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the
conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as
certified or photostatic copies, the authenticity of the originals of
such copies and the authenticity of telegraphic or telephonic
confirmations of public officials and others.  As to facts material to
our opinion, we have relied upon certificates or telegraphic or
telephonic confirmations of public officials and certificates, documents,
statements and other information of the Company or its representatives or
officers.

     Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Common
Shares that may be issued by the Company, when issued and paid for in
accordance with the terms of the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable.

     We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an Exhibit to the
Registration Statement.

                         Very truly yours,



                         /s/ Liddell, Sapp, Zivley, Hill & LaBoon
