WacoTX.com exists to answer one simple question: where should I go in Waco? Whether you have lived here your whole life, you are planning a weekend trip, or you are thinking about making the move, we help you find the restaurants, businesses, attractions, and neighborhoods that make the Heart of Texas worth exploring.
We organize information on local places — gathered from open map data, official business websites, and business owners — the way real people actually search — by what they are hungry for, what they need done, and where they want to go.
Who we are
For ownership and publication inquiries, contact Fire Source Media at info@firesourcemedia.com. This is an independent publication, not the city’s official tourism website.
WacoTX.com is an independent local guide. We are not affiliated with the City of Waco, McLennan County, Baylor University, or any business we list. No business can pay to change what we write about it.
What we cover
Waco and the surrounding Greater Waco communities, including Woodway, Hewitt, Robinson, Bellmead, Lorena, China Spring, McGregor, Lacy Lakeview, West, and nearby towns.
Where our information comes from
Listing basics come from OpenStreetMap, a free map built by volunteers and shared under an open license, plus official business websites and details business owners send us. We do not copy ratings, reviews, or photos from Google or review sites. When something hasn't been confirmed, we leave it out rather than guess.
Photos
Photos on listings are supplied by business owners or come from openly licensed collections such as Wikimedia Commons, with a credit line. Where no real photo exists yet, we show a clearly labeled illustrative image.
Editorial standards
Our guides help readers choose places and plan a visit. We use official sources for changeable details and link to those sources so readers can check current hours, admission, access, and reservations. Directory inclusion is not a review, an endorsement, or evidence of a personal visit.
We do not invent reviews, firsthand experiences, author credentials, or publication dates. Articles show their recorded publication date and a separate update date when substantive guidance changes. We do not present a routine page refresh as an editorial update. Named contributor profiles will appear only when the person’s identity and role are confirmed.
Corrections
Spot something wrong? Use the “Suggest a correction” button on any listing, or email info@firesourcemedia.com. We review every report and update the page once the fix is confirmed. Business owners can submit a claim and supporting details for review; a claim does not automatically publish changes or photographs.
Sponsored placements
Businesses can pay for featured placement. Paid spots are always labeled “Sponsored” and are kept separate from our editorial recommendations and listings.
