Prices are much lower than national numbers, with a median sale price of about $280,000, and comparable to nearby Little River Academy.

The growth is also driving appreciating values, according to Jimmy Ashby, a Realtor with Ashby Real Estate Group and a Bell County native of over 60 years. "A lot of people move here just because of the thriving industrial and medical areas. It's pushing growth and with growth, prices tend to go up."
Rogers Independent School district serves the city, with one track from preschool through 12th grade. It offers athletic and extracurricular opportunities comparable to bigger districts, along with dual-credit classes at Temple College. Community events also revolve around the schools, including sports games at Merk Field and livestock shows. Kids can participate in 4-H and Future Farmers of America programs and compete at the Bell County Youth Fair.
Shopping and dining are limited, but in 2025 Rogers unveiled 1881 Eats, a food truck lot in the heart of town. "There's going to be like a gas station and a Dollar General, but for your major shopping, you're going to Temple or Waco," Ashby says. Temple options include:

Rogers City Park is the town's dedicated green space, with a playground, tennis courts, baseball diamonds and a new 27-hole disc golf course that was unveiled in 2025.
