Teague is a friendly, low-cost small city of roughly 3,400 with a tight-knit, community-oriented feel, regular local events, a public library and even a small recreational airport—an easy, low-stress base for multi-week contracts where evenings and weekends are relaxed and safe.
When you want more options, Mexia is about 13 miles away for groceries, casual dining and basics, and Waco is within reasonable driving distance for larger hospitals, museums, restaurants and weekend entertainment.
