Best In Texas Real Estate™: Killeen-Temple-Copperas Cove-Lampasas

Killeen-Temple MSA leads Texas in in-migration growth, with a 8.6% rise in households relocating between 2017-18 and 2022-23, according to ALEX Intelligence’s latest analysis. This surge is driven by Fort Cavazos and the Baylor Scott & White medical corridor, not by tech or finance booms. The data shows that military and healthcare employment are creating permanent, family-oriented communities, not transient populations. This is not a temporary spike—it’s a structural shift in how people choose to live. How does this compare to other Texas metros like Austin or Houston?
