Bell County, Texas
Bell County is right in the heart of Texas. It has a bit of everything. It straddles I-35, halfway between Austin and Waco. Fort Hood calls this place home. It’s a big deal around here.
The county has small towns and growing cities. Belton Lake is a favorite spot for boating and fishing. There’s plenty of old Texas charm. But it’s not stuck in the past.
University of Mary Hardin-Baylor is in Belton. The area’s growing fast so new folks are moving in all the time. Still, it keeps that friendly Texas vibe.
