Why was this article moved from Fort Hood, which is the norm for military bases? It's not a town, like Fort Worth, Texas. —wwoods 03:44, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Some of the material may have been moved, but the article was created because of Fort Hood as a census-designated place. Tbe information about the base was added later. For me it hasn't yet reached some magic threshold that would make me think that there needs to be two separate articles, but I believe that eventually there will need to be. Or the CPD will disappear because of changes in a future census. Deh 03:58, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

I see a number of problems with this article, and I'm sure that other articles with census data have the same problems. Articles with census data are created and updated with bots, yet there is no indication of which areas should be avoided by humans in order to avoid making changes that cannot be updated by bots (such as when the next census is reported). Is there any way to use templates to provide the same data? Bots could then search for templates and update the figures used.

Since this artcle refers to the CDP, it does not refer to the legal boundaries of Fort Hood, which are considerably larger than indicated by the article (hundreds of square miles); it's as large as some counties. Can someone provide the full size? --Scott McNay 02:55, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] location

"located halfway between Austin and Waco within the U.S. state of Texas." For those of us who are not from texas and do not know where austin or waco is located and do not want to research it, it might be better to say how many miles away from the two cities it is. Just a suggestion. Also, the history should have a breif summary, even if there is another page for the history.-ChristopherMannMcKay 17:17, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
