'''Homeland''' is simultaneously a [[town]], a portion of the Winchester-Homeland Municipal Advisory Council (MAC) area which aspires to become a model city, and a [[census-designated place]] (CDP) all in the unincorporated area of [[Riverside County, California|Riverside County]], [[California]], United States.  Each of the latter two has different boundaries than the town itself.  When census data is used for funding and districting purposes and/or cited herein, the reference is to land within the CDP's boundaries, not the town's.  

It's important to remember that U.S. Census created CDPs may have unrecognizable boundaries relative the actual boundaries of the unincorporated communities having the same names.  Since CDP boundary changes result primarily from territorial annexations, detachments, mergers, or consolidations of governmental units, or changes in treaties or executive orders, a community's identity within their planning boundaries and the CDP boundaries can easily become disparate from one another.

Within the CDP, The population was 5,969 at the 2010 census, up from 3,710 at the 2000 census.
