\"FootballIf you’re looking to live in an affordable city where you can still easily watch big-time college football, there aren’t many locations better than Waco and Baylor’s Floyd Casey Stadium.<\/p>\n

Coldwell Banker studied the average price of what they considered to be a reasonably comfortable family home in the home city for each of the 119 Division I-A football programs.
