Innovative community with access to hospitals and schooling
A hub for health and life sciences, the Temple Medical and Educational District, or TMED, boasts top medical education and research alongside a community college in one of Central Texas’ most innovative planned developments. “I like that everything is close and convenient,” says Bailey Pauly, a leasing agent assistant with University Courtyard student housing. “It’s a pretty quiet area, but South 1st Street will get a decent amount of traffic.” In addition to post-secondary education at the community college, TMED is also home to Travis Science Academy, a middle school; a recreation center and a youth club. TMED has three medical buildings within its boundaries: a V.A. Hospital, the Baylor Scott & White Medical Center – Temple and the Texas A&M Health Science Center Medical Research Building.

University housing is “right across from a gas station, so it gets a lot of late-night visitors,” Pauly says.

Bungalows and ranch-style homes with some university housing
The neighborhood is primarily composed of cozy bungalows and ranch-style houses. Most homes were built in the 1950s and range in price from $139,000 to $245,000, depending on the size of the home and the number of bedrooms.
