Having a family, I'd rather keep my family in a decent area obviously. Please do not comment " there's crime everywhere". this is obvious and the point is not to find a crime-free zone, but an area that is safer.What are decent places for a family to live around fort hood?2019-08-21T12:17:14-04:00SPC Private RallyPoint Member4940101<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have been told numerous times that the crime is pretty bad in and outside Fort Hood and a good place to look at would be the Belton area.

Especially if yo unwind yo working on WFH. Belton and Cove are nice but there are some, well shadier areas there too. Your commute is going to suck if you work on one side and have to come from the complete opposite side.Response by SFC Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 21 at 2019 5:34 PM2019-08-21T17:34:15-04:002019-08-21T17:34:15-04:00SGT Private RallyPoint Member4941614<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I was at Ft. Hood last year, a popular RD that a lot of us lived off of was Stan Schlueter. Rent was semi- cheaper, and close enough to post to be able to go home at lunch if need be. I had zero issues with crime.Response by SGT Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 21 at 2019 7:52 PM2019-08-21T19:52:26-04:002019-08-21T19:52:26-04:00SPC Gary Welch4941892<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I live in Gatesville on the northern edge of ft hood lived here since 92 love it smaller town but I've never had a problem out hereResponse by SPC Gary Welch made Aug 21 at 2019 9:00 PM2019-08-21T21:00:04-04:002019-08-21T21:00:04-04:00WO1 Craig L Wirth4942482<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I owned a house in Copperas Cove.Response by WO1 Craig L Wirth made Aug 21 at 2019 11:36 PM2019-08-21T23:36:37-04:002019-08-21T23:36:37-04:00SSG Private RallyPoint Member4943603<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Check out Cove. <br />My wife and I live in copperas Cove and it ain’t bad, my road is pretty quiet and price for rent isn’t badResponse by SSG Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 22 at 2019 8:54 AM2019-08-22T08:54:17-04:002019-08-22T08:54:17-04:001SG Cj Grisham4951302<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Anywhere but Killeen.
