Life in Waco is calm, grounded, and deeply connected to nature. Residents enjoy wide-open spaces, evening drives through rural backroads, and the simplicity of small-town living. With nearby access to schools, shopping, and healthcare in Richmond, Waco offers the best of both worlds—peaceful seclusion and practical convenience.

Entertainment in Waco is more about lifestyle than nightlife—think bonfires, front-porch conversations, and local gatherings. For events, dining, or cultural activities, residents head to nearby Richmond or Berea. Outdoor enjoyment takes center stage here, with space for gardening, hiking, riding ATVs, and soaking in the natural surroundings.

While Waco itself is quiet, nearby attractions offer plenty to explore. Take a short drive to Lake Reba Park for walking trails, fishing, and playgrounds. Discover Kentucky history at the Battle of Richmond Visitors Center, or explore the arts and Appalachian culture in Berea. Hikers and nature lovers can enjoy scenic adventures in the Daniel Boone National Forest, which stretches into the southern part of Madison County.
