Coolidge pairs wide-open skies with a close-knit pace. Set along State Highway 171 in Limestone County, the town sits an easy hop from the day-to-day conveniences in Mexia and the county seat in Groesbeck, with bigger-city culture and jobs in Waco less than an hour away. Modest homes on roomy lots, quiet streets, and friendly front-porch conversations define the local rhythm, while weekend trails and lakes are just down the road.
Families benefit from a one-stop K–12 experience at the Coolidge Independent School District, known for individual attention, career and technical programs, and Friday night school spirit. Adults and dual-credit students can tap into workforce certificates and core classes through the Navarro College Mexia Center, expanding options without a long commute.
History and outdoor recreation are a signature draw. Paddlers and hikers head to Fort Parker State Park on the Navasota River, while living-history events at the reconstructed Old Fort Parker and the Confederate Reunion Grounds State Historic Site connect residents to the area’s frontier and Civil War–era stories. County services and records are close by via the official county government website, and anglers enjoy nearby Lake Mexia for easy weekend casts. Whether you’re planning your first purchase or preparing to sell, Agent Pronto can introduce you to a local real estate pro who knows how to navigate every step.
