I noticed when you type in Tarrant County College Southeast Campus, it shows “Hunter Pointe” in part of it.

Yesterday, I changed the neighborhood of Hunter Pointe’s tag from place=hamlet to place=neighborhood.

Is it possible that it believed that Tarrant County College Southeast Campus was located in a hamlet due to the proximity?

Please see the answer of @lonvia Falscher Ortsname, wieso? - #5 by lonvia to a similar question.

The essence: Yes this place node is the cause for that.

The place node is close enough the campus that it’s absolutely fair that Nominatim makes the assumption that the campus is part of it. The problem will only go away when Hunter Pointe gets an area.

Assuming that this area is pretty much the neighbourhood of Hunter Pointe, I suggest removing the place node completely and simply adding the name to the landuse way.
