I have lived here for 3 months because my husband is in the Army. And it is not as bad as you claim it to be. And No – I do not go to bars, drink alcohol, or pawn things for money. Apparently, you don’t know how to hunt down other fun things to do…maybe you only mentioned those items because that is all you wanted to do while you were here. My husband is enlisted, and we live in housing on base that is FAR from bad, and we do not hate it here. God knows it is better than stinkin’ FLORIDA! I was sooo happy to get the hell out of THAT state, and that would be the one place I would try to talk people out of movung to. Oh! And FYI: most people do not CHOOSE to move to Fort Hood…they are in the Army and TOLD to move wherever the Army tells them to.
