Why Live in Downtown Waco

Key landmarks include the Dr Pepper Museum, the Hippodrome Theatre, and the iconic Waco Suspension Bridge. The Silos, home to Magnolia Market, are a major draw, surrounded by breweries, restaurants, and independent shops. The Waco Downtown Farmers Market offers fresh produce every Saturday, while Fabled Bookshop & Café provides a cozy spot for book lovers. Dining options range from Vietnamese cuisine at The Clay Pot to Mexican fare at Maria Mezcaleria. For nightlife, venues like Backyard Bar Stage and Grill and Waco Ale Company offer live music and events, though the area is known for its early closing times. Outdoor spaces such as Indian Spring Park and Cotton Palace Park provide green spaces with walking paths, playgrounds, and picnic areas.
