In the heart of central Texas, Killeen is best known for Fort Cavazos, formerly Fort Hood, one of the largest military bases in the nation. Proud of its connection to the armed forces, Killen has a strong military presence that is celebrated around town. Renters looking for apartments or homes will find flags and historical markers with mentions of the military. The town is home to thousands of active-duty soldiers, veterans, and military families and friends. When you’re out and about, it’s common to see soldiers wearing camouflage.
Fort Cavazos molds a thriving economy and a diverse, family-oriented community. As a result, there is a wide range of international restaurants available in town. Local popular restaurants include Tham Rab Thai, Arepitas, Chau’s Café, Takorea, Hierba Fresca, and Killeen Sunugal African Restaurant. Renting in Killeen also affords you the opportunity to make a splash at the Lions Club Aquatics Park, browse the many retail offerings at Killeen Mall, watch a performance at Vive Les Arts Theatre, and hit the trails at Dana Peak Park. For even more allure, the cost of living here is low.
Temple, Waco, and Austin are all within an hour’s drive of Killeen, making options for a weekend getaway plentiful. With access to Highway 190 and Killeen-Fort Hood Regional Airport, commuting and traveling from Killeen is simple.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
