Urban convenience meets suburbia in Temple's Midway
Urban convenience and suburbia come together in Temple's Midway neighborhood. The community is blanketed by towering oaks, surrounded by parks and within walking distance of schools, shopping and top-ranked medical facilities. Midtown and Downtown Temple are several miles north of Midway, and the Temple Medical and Educational District (TMED), a medical research and innovation hub, borders its northern edge. “If you’re used to a fast-paced life, get ready to slow down here,” says Scott Eason, a Realtor with Homestead Real Estate. “You’ll find a lot of retirees, as well as nurses and medical staff who work at Baylor Scott and White. People come here to get into a peaceful place. Midway still has that small hometown feel, but it’s large enough to have all your big-box stores and conveniences.” Proximity to three major thoroughfares provides access to the rest of the Killeen-Temple-Fort Hood Metro area.
Park-like community with traditional homes
Surrounded by a dense canopy of towering oaks and a park at its center, the community is filled with ranch-style homes, two-story traditional brick homes and contemporary properties. There’s a mix of newer and older homes. Prices range from the low-$200,000s for a three-bedroom to the high-$800,000s for a five- or six-bedroom. Property size averages between 1,200 square feet and 6,000 square feet. There are also a few newer builds going for over $1 million. “You’ll see a lot of homes built in the 1980s and 1990s, and some midsize homes, but then you go around a corner, and there’s a million-dollar home,” says Eason. “So, there are a lot of options for all types of buyers, from empty nesters and retirees to young families or first-time buyers.” Midway also offers duplexes ranging from the low-$200,000s for a three-bedroom to the low-$500,000s for a five-bedroom. Most single-family dwellings have multicar garages, spacious paved driveways and fenced-in backyards. Many properties also have in-ground pools. Lot sizes are large, with many over a half-acre, but some stretch over 3 acres. Paved walking paths meander throughout Midway, connecting neighbors together. Rentals are also scattered throughout Midway. The community offers single-family homes for rent starting in the low $1,400s. Apartments and condos are also available in several complexes, ranging from the low $800s to the high $1,800s. The southern portion of the community backs up to over 30 acres of undeveloped land. Much of the rest is surrounded by retail and restaurants. Parks, hospitals and restaurants are within walking and biking distance.

Parents also have several private primary, secondary and higher education options. “Central Texas Christian is a well-regarded private option here, and nearby, you have the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor 30 miles north in Waco,” says Eason. “The Baylor Bears are one of only three private-school football teams in the Big 12.” Some of the neighborhood is also served by Academy Independent School District, which is ranked the seventh-best district in the county, according to Niche.
