  We re-examine the implications of allowing fermion fields to propagate in the
five-dimensional bulk of the Randall-Sundrum (RS) localized gravity model. We
find that mixing between the Standard Model top quark and its Kaluza Klein
excitations generates large contributions to the rho parameter and consequently
restricts the fundamental RS scale to lie above 100 TeV. To circumvent this
bound we propose a `mixed' scenario which localizes the third generation
fermions on the TeV brane and allows the lighter generations to propagate in
the full five-dimensional bulk. We show that this construction naturally
reproduces the observed m_c / m_t and m_s / m_b hierarchies. We explore the
signatures of this scenario in precision measurements and future high energy
collider experiments. We find that the region of parameter space that addresses
the hierarchies of fermion Yukawa couplings permits a Higgs boson with a mass
of 500 GeV and remains otherwise invisible at the LHC. However, the entire
parameter region consistent with electroweak precision data is testable at
future linear colliders. We briefly discuss possible constraints on this
scenario arising from flavor changing neutral currents.
