Killeen grew up alongside Fort Hood, one of the largest military installations in the world, and the post still shapes nearly every part of local life. Soldiers and their families, defense contractors, veterans’ services and the businesses that support them drive the economy, along with healthcare, Texas A&M University–Central Texas and a growing retail and residential base that has made Killeen, Harker Heights and Copperas Cove one of the fastest-growing corners of Central Texas.

Travel to and from a major post never really stops: change-of-command ceremonies, graduations, homecomings, contractor meetings and moves in both directions. Killeen sits west of Interstate 35 between Austin and Waco, and reaching it from elsewhere in Texas often means a slow drive or a connection through a larger hub. A direct private flight makes a quick visit simpler and leaves more time for the people you came to see. Off post, visitors head to Stillhouse Hollow and Belton lakes, the courthouse square in Belton, the shops and inns of Salado and the Hill Country to the southwest.
