To experience it, you can stroll through our historic downtown, wander through the exhibits at Boonville Heritage Park, explore the artifacts at the Brazos Valley African American Museum, or dive into the historical narrative at the Carnegie History Center.
Bryan’s Police (BPD) and Fire Departments (BFD) are two of the best in the country. Their combined efforts keep the community as safe as possible. Over the last 10 years, there has been a 41 percent reduction in Part 1 crimes, and BPD is only one of 3 percent of agencies nationwide to be accredited through the Commission on Accreditation of Law Enforcement Agencies. BFD is one of 400 agencies nationwide to have an Insurance Services Office (ISO) Class 1 top rating, and its EMS service is one of 11 agencies in Texas to be accredited through the Commission on Accreditation of Ambulances Services.

As a diverse community, the people of Bryan represent many backgrounds, ethnicities, countries and cultures. In 2021, the City of Bryan researched the history of many of these people and their stories. You can check them out here:
