City of Temple EMPLOYER PAGE

What began in 1881, as a model city built from railroad blueprints, is still a city built on vision. Temple was named for Santa Fe's Chief construction engineer, Bernard Moore Temple, and as we start our 120th year, the city continues to expand its horizons with a close proximity to Austin's high tech community and our own unique economic base.

Temple's strategic location directly on Interstate 35 and State Highway 36, links the city to the other major Texas cities (Dallas, Austin, San Antonio and Houston) as well as the nation's midwest and south to NAFTA partner, Mexico.

Economic diversity in medical services and research, warehouse/distribution and manufacturing has been and continues to be Temple's trademark as it moves forward with steady growth and into broader national and international roles for the 21st century.

By offering both the benefits of city living and the ease of country life, Temple continues to draw more families and businesses to this Central Texas region.
