Sometimes, finding information about a city can take a little digging. Normally, it's easy to find services for seniors on a city website, but with the City of Waco, it wasn't quite as obvious.

First, I did an internet search for "senior centers in Waco" and came up with nothing - which was unusual. So, I went to the City of Waco's website, and in the search bar, I typed in "Seniors" and expected the top results to help, but the first few results had nothing to do with seniors, or any senior programs in Waco. However, about 5 results down, I saw a page for "Community Centers" and found some information.

Most often, there are actual "senior centers" in cities of decent size, and they are called as such, but in Waco, they are "community centers" and there looks to be 5 of them -

Bledsoe-Miller Community Center, (300 MLK Blvd.); South Waco Community Center (2815 Speight); Dewey, Located in Dewey Park (925 N. 9th St.); The Sul Ross Community Center (1414 Jefferson); The Harrison Community Center (1718 N. 42nd St.).

All of these community centers appear to offer some decent senior programs and events. To find out the hours of operation, as well as specific phone numbers to each facility, visit the Community Centers page on the City of Waco website here.
