As residents of Copperas Cove, we enjoy an exceptional quality of life—it’s known as “The City built for Family Living” and just 50 miles north of Austin. Our town offers charming in-town and rural neighborhoods, award-winning schools, an 18-hole golf course, beautiful parks, and a calendar of outdoor recreational activities. We’re famous for the several bike runs and festivals that attract visitors year-round. Our community is growing, but still has a tight-knit, small-town feel and is recognized as one of the safest in Central Texas. We think this is the way life.
