    I grew up and lived in Killeen in the 2000s when Fort Hood had significantly less housing. I haven't been back in the last couple or few years but it's nice to see that most of Killeen hasn't changed much. Rancier looked like it had no change at all from when I first went down the street years ago.

      I'm sorry. Killeen is Killeen is kinda horrible. It's way underfunded because the disproportionate amount of disabled army vets here that don't pay property taxes.(I'm one of them). The crime on the north side is out of control. The grocery stores had to close on that side of town. Downtown is overrun with homeless. There is no extra curricular stuff to do here you need to drive 45minutes south to do anything in Austin. I live here because I've been here off and on since the 90s and it's close to the VA. Good luck.

      The southside (south of I-14) looked like the safer, more desirable part of town.

      Generally better further south towards either the Texas A&M-Central Texas or Chaparral High School areas or near the south side of Harker Heights. Great new park, higher end homes, and a hiking trail on the Killeen-Harker Heights southern border in Heritage Oaks.

      You will think everything is safe. We have a couple of blocks by our city hall that have kids that think they are something that shoot at each other now and then. I've lived north of San Diego, south of DC and other places. You will think you moved to super small town USA.
