About Our Area

Waco, dubbed “The Heart of Texas,” is in central Texas, centrally located between the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex and Austin. The current population is greater than 134,000 and is rapidly growing. The county seat of McLennan County, Waco was founded in 1849 by the Huaco Indians. It is home of Dr. Pepper, Baylor University, Texas Ranger Hall of Fame and Museum, and the Texas Sports Hall of Fame. Additionally, Waco is the hometown of Chip and Joanna Gaines of Fixer Upper fame and the Magnolia Market.

Waco offers more than enough to keep you busy. Mountain bike or hike in Cameron Park, visit the animals at Cameron Park Zoo, or explore downtown where you’ll find Magnolia Market, antique stores, and wonderful local shops and restaurants. Stroll through our cultural and historic district. Walk across the historic Suspension Bridge, built in 1870, where the hooves of cattle followed the Chisholm and Shawnee Trails.

Outdoor adventures abound. You can simply relax at the 79,000-acre Lake Waco or go canoeing in the Brazos river. Cameron Park itself consists of 410 acres with miles of hiking, biking and equestrian trails as well as fishing and a disc-golf course. Additional outdoor/ water activities include camping and boating at Lake Waco, Hawaiian Falls Water Park and Waco Surf. American Airlines has a hub located in Waco.
