  Villages at Twin Rivers

  On the outskirts of Waco, past the western suburb of Woodway, the Villages at Twin Rivers can feel like their own miniature town. Technically a collection of five subdivisions, the master-planned community flows with a serene vibe and a host of amenities. “It’s a place where you see people,” says Robert Barnes, broker and owner at Greater Waco

  Austin Avenue

  Within striking distance of downtown Waco, between the thrum of West Waco Drive and the laddered railroad tracks, a slim passage of streets makes up the neighborhood known as Austin Avenue. Echoes of the city’s early days as a thriving cotton market are heard throughout, particularly in historical landmarks like the Cottonland Castle. “It’s a

  Seven miles northeast of downtown near Interstate 35, Texas State Technical College in Waco engineers a stronger future for the Texas workforce. The two-year vocational school’s presence is so strong that the surrounding neighborhood is called Technology Village.

  West Waco

  The city of Waco boasts a remarkable feature: Lake Waco, a 7,700-acre reservoir that spreads across the western side of town. Because of the lake's natural crescent shape, the Texas city doesn’t subscribe to a traditional boxlike grid pattern. As a result, “West Waco” is a somewhat misleading description, as it’s more south than west of the

  Mountainview crests the edge of Lake Waco, the biggest lake in the US to be contained entirely within the boundaries of a single city. However, the crescent-shaped freshwater oasis is only one of the major draws for residents of this Waco neighborhood. “Mountainview Elementary is probably the best elementary school in the Waco Independent School

  North Lake Waco

  In 1978, while walking along a creek in the area now known as North Lake Waco, two men made a startling discovery: massive, moss-coated bone fragments protruding from clay along the riverbank. The fossils turned out to be the remnants of Columbian mammoths — the country's first and only recorded evidence of a nursery herd. The site earned National

  Willow Grove

  Willow Grove's founders originally set out to organize a church in the nearby community of Valley Mills, but they weren't pleased with the location. So, they packed their wagons with lumber and moved 15 miles east across the Texas plain, closer to the banks of Lake Waco. After the settlers planted "willow switches" to establish the new territory,

  Heart of Texas

  There’s some debate about where the “Heart of Texas” truly lies, at least in geographical terms. Most Texans would agree that the term aptly describes their shared love of the nation’s second-largest state — that it’s a feeling rather than a place. Perhaps that’s why numerous spots, including this central Waco neighborhood, have adopted the

  East Riverside

The river created a fissure between the modest eastern settlement and the more prosperous village on the western bank.
