Texas A&M’s main campus is located in Bryan-College Station, Texas. The twin cities of Bryan and College Station have served as the adopted hometown for generations of Aggies. Both cities have grown exponentially just as Texas A&M has grown, and each is a welcoming, diverse community that continues to grow and thrive. And it’s considered one of the best places to live in Texas, according to Niche.com, based on cost of living, quality of public schools, job opportunities, crime rate and local amenities.
LIVING IN BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION
