South Side
The South Side, to the southeast in reality, is home to the heart of Waco. It is where the city was born and much of its history was created. It was a prospering area until 1953, when it was devastated by a tornado. It also suffers from Urban decay, though the area around Baylor University is being renewed. The South Side is a largely Hispanic community. It is home to many restaurants and stores of the Mexican culture.
