You’ll find a lot of people really pride themselves on living in what they(we) hilariously refer to as “Waco Waco”, and we can totally understand why!

WELCOME TO WACO

You’ll find a lot of people really pride themselves on living in what they(we) hilariously refer to as “Waco Waco”, and we can totally understand why! The old-world charm, mature trees, hip vibes, and convenient distance to downtown would all be considerations in the “pros” category. This “as urban as small town, central Texas gets” area offers not just diverse home-styles, but a community full of different walks of life and experiences like what you might be more used to when coming from a bigger city.
 
 

VIBRANT CULTURE MEETS SMALL TOWN TEXAS

 
 
There is also the prestige of the Ridgewood Country club and Lake Shore Drive areas where the select few get to enjoy a stunning lake view. Boutique shopping and eating out is easy over here – and when cooking at home Waco happens to have 3+ of our famed Texas based grocery stores HEB. While Waco ISD schools are not currently the highest rated, the community as a whole has been experiencing a major polishing and refurbishment with many distinguished Waco Alumni pouring back into what could be so great again. There are also many private school options throughout Waco that tend to be much more affordable than in bigger cities. If this sounds like a set up that fits your happening lifestyle – Castle & Sanger Heights, Mountainview, Ridgewood area, Wooded Acres, or the Lake Streets could be the place for you!
