Comment This is a difficult one since it's a manufactured home community outside Bozeman. Articles like
[1] refer to it as being in Bozeman, and the addresses go to Bozeman, but it is an official US census-designated place (type it in
here) which I think probably qualifies for "legally defined populated place."

Delete It's a manufactured home park with about 200 lots. The news article above calls it a neighborhood and as such needs to meet GNG under GEOLAND#2.
Census-designated places are defined for statistical purposes only.

That is not a valid delete rationale. If you believe it falls under GEOLAND#2 then that mandates a merge: "information on the informal place should be included in the more general article on the legally recognized populated place or administrative subdivision that contains it", which would be merge to
Gallatin County, Montana#Census-designated places.----

Keep, often legal definitions differ from popular definitions and this may be such a place. Meets
GEOLAND however and is still recognised as a place in general terminology. In cases like this
GNG is also arguably met due to
significant coverage existing is statistical listings such as
this. J947(

WP:SIGCOV requires coverage in reliable sources, i.e. those with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. Is there any evidence that ourhero.in has a competent editorial team or employs any sort of fact-checking before republishing data mined from government sources? Dozens of sites function as GNIS/census mirrors or use their location data, but I wouldn't consider these to be significant coverage. –

My theory is that if they are entirely based off government sources so they are reliable but upon reflection since they are basically all copies of each other in different formats they only should count for one source.
GEOLAND should be enough for notability though. J947(

Keep This is a distinct named populated place outwith the boundaries of Bozeman, it therefore doesn't fall under GEOLAND2 as a subdivision but GEOLAND1 as a legally recognized place. ----
