The Best Areas in Bryan-College Station to Raise a Family

The combined cities of Bryan and College Station make an excellent place to raise a family. The college city has great schools and the conveniences of a big city, but the friendly, laid back feeling of a small town community. The scenery and parks are beautiful, and there are plenty of activities for the whole family to enjoy. It’s no wonder that Bryan-College Station was ranked in the top three places to live. Here are some areas to consider when searching for your home in Bryan-College Station.

Creek Meadows

 In Creek Meadows, you can find homes between 1,100 and 2,000 square feet, plenty of room for the whole family.

Creek Meadows is in the same zone as some of the best schools in town, including Greens Prairie Elementary, College Station Middle School, and A&M Consolidated High School.

Village of Indian Lakes

Bryan
