This lively, toe-tapping town has a rich music history

Historic Suburban Affordable College Town

Marshall is a small suburban town in east Texas filled with history. This music town is home of Boogie Woogie music, a form of blues piano style and swing dance created in the 1870s. Marshall has music-focused events almost every night of the week, listed on the Marshall Boogie Woogie site. OS2 Restaurant and Pub hosts Boogie Woogie Wednesdays every week and Charlie’s Backyard showcases live music on weekends on their large outdoor stage.

On Second Saturday, a festival with arts, crafts, vendors, and a car show, locals rally together to enjoy an outdoor concert. Marshall is also the hometown of four Tuskegee Airmen and Wiley College, one of the oldest historically black colleges west of the Mississippi River. When the town isn’t celebrating its musical past, you can find locals at Josey’s Ranch, an equestrian center where you can take a clinic to learn how to become a rodeo star.

Marshall’s cost of living is lower than other Texas cities so housing is very affordable. The area is suburban and walkable. The town is located in east Texas and is just 30 minutes from the border of Louisiana if you’re looking to take a trip.
