Begun in 1881 as a model city built from
railroad blueprints, Temple remains a city with a vision. Our
thriving, prosperous community continues to draw families and
progressive commercial enterprises with its economic freshness and
strong undercurrent of values, ethics and spirit.
Today, more than a century after its
birth, Temple still enjoys the distinction of being the demographic
center of Texas. The Greater Temple Area has a population
of over 111,000 and 84% of the state's population is within three
hours of Temple.
Hometown pride infuses Temple's
commitment to its natural beauty, its Texas-sized support of local
sports, its emphasis on industrial growth, and its nurture of the body
through its world-class medical center and of the mind through a
strong educational base.
With a diverse mixture of talents and
interests, Temple truly mixes the cosmopolitan outlook on the good
"life" with rich, down-to-earth country "style" to create a lifestyle
which promotes personal, professional and spiritual growth.
