Waco is a small, quiet, agricultural town in west-central Georgia, USA, part of Harris County, about 120 kilometers from Atlanta. With a population of less than 1,000, the town is known for its peanut growing and processing industry, and each fall hosts a small peanut festival to showcase its agricultural heritage. Waco retains a quintessential Southern small-town feel, with vintage buildings built in the late 1800's set against tree-lined streets for residents looking for a slower pace of life. The community has a strong atmosphere and is surrounded by the natural beauty of the Cedartown Mountains, where outdoor enthusiasts can hike or bird watch.
