Find The Right Corner Of The Map
The top of the Waco Corridor is the last stretch where acreage and small-town pace still sit inside a reasonable drive of DFW, and the six towns out here split on how much of the metroplex you still need. Hillsboro is the county seat with a restored courthouse, a hospital, and the I-35 split running through it. Itasca and Italy sit right on the interstate with the easiest drive back up. Aquilla has a lake almost nobody outside Hill County knows about. Abbott and Covington are open pasture and quiet. This page gets you to the one that fits what you’re actually leaving behind.

Right on I-35 with a main street and a football tradition that carries the town on Friday nights.

- Acreage
Italy
Still in Ellis County and still on the interstate, which puts Dallas closer than the pricing suggests.

- Acreage
Aquilla
Lake Aquilla sits right there and almost nobody outside Hill County knows it. Waterfront and pasture.
- Lake access
- Acreage
Abbott
Willie Nelson's hometown, and it still looks like the place that produced him. Farmland and open sky.

- Deep quiet
Covington
West of the interstate where the land rolls and the traffic disappears entirely. The most rural of the six.

- Deep quiet
