Bellmead is on Hwy 31 and US 84, two miles northeast of Waco in east central McLennan County. The community began in the mid-1920s, when the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad chose the site for its locomotive shops. Although Bellmead has developed some retail businesses and service industries of its own, its proximity to Waco enables residents to commute to work or shop in the larger city. The population of Bellmead was 7,698 in 1970, 7,569 in 1980, and 8,336 in 1990.
