Following West Waco Drive to Richland Mall
Why might someone move to Richland Hills instead of another Waco neighborhood? Beau Ballard doesn’t mince words. “Accessibility,” says the Realtor with Weichert Realtors. “You have Valley Mills Drive, Waco Drive, Franklin Avenue, Highway 6, Loop 340. You can access all parts of Waco from there fairly quickly.” Several major shopping centers anchor the neighborhood, which is bisected by West Waco Drive. The central location, south of downtown and east of Lake Waco, appeals to buyers who want to be close to recreational opportunities and city amenities. Richland Hills is also adjacent to two healthcare facilities, Ascension Providence Hospital and Meadowlake Medical Center.
Bouncing between Brazos Place and Richland Mall
Richland Hills residents have a wealth of shopping and dining opportunities. Brazos Place Shopping Center and the Waco Centre shopping mall converge in the neighborhood’s northeast corner, where Our Breakfast Place serves up hearty omelets and griddled French toast to start the day. McAlister’s Deli offers handmade sandwiches, salads and giant spuds at lunchtime. AMC Galaxy 16 is a convenient place to take in the latest blockbuster. At the intersection of Highway 6 and West Waco Drive, Richland Mall awaits with numerous department stores, chain restaurants and a food court. For groceries, Aldi has a convenient location on North Valley Mills Drive.
The Richland Mall is home to four major department stores.

West Waco Drive to Woodway
Though the Waco Transit System positions a few bus stops around the malls, the area is mainly car-dependent. Residents can hop onto West Waco Drive to head southwest to Woodway or north to downtown Waco, 3 miles away. Meanwhile, Franklin Avenue offers an alternate route to the stores and restaurants at Brazos Place and Waco Centre. North Valley Mills Drive runs along the neighborhood’s northern edge and leads to the shores of Lake Waco and Waco Regional Airport, about 8 miles north. On the southern side, State Highway 6 provides a route to the healthcare centers in nearby Parkdale Viking Hills.
Loop 340 connects Richland Hills to Lake Waco.
The interchange of Loop 340 and Highway 84 makes getting around from Richland Hills a breeze.
