About this map

The Fort Hood Military Reservation dominates the northern half of this Central Texas landscape, reflecting the massive military expansion that transformed the region during the mid-20th century. While the city of Killeen shows significant growth at the base's doorstep, the surrounding rural heritage remains visible through numerous family landmarks and community centers. Historically important sites like the Killeen City Cem, Pleasant Hill Cem, and Keys Valley Ch anchor the local genealogy of Bell County. The landscape is bisected by the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe railroad, which parallels Nolan Creek and connects the established settlements of Nolanville and Walker Village. To the east, the rising waters of the Belton Reservoir mark a shift in the local geography, inundating the valleys near the Owl Creek Mountains and providing a stark contrast to the high points of Dana Peak and Sugar Loaf Mtn.
