This Navaid is in the United States. It's named after a nearby settlement, a census-designated place, the name of which could be the combination of a man's first and last name.
There's heavy flight training activity in this area. It's south of a large city and its main airport.
It's near a resort that was built to host Spring Training for a Major League Baseball team, and that resort was named after a combination of that team's city, and a nearby town.
The VORTAC used to be named after that town, but its name and identifier was changed, as it's not co - located with the town's airport of the same name.

This Navaid is in a suburb of a large U.S. city, which is a former airline hub. It's along a major east-west Jet Airway. It's named after the nearby small city, which is the county seat, and the county's name sounds like an old time car horn. That city is named after the middle name of a person whose last name is the same as the photographer. A Cook who marketed a type of canned food (its brand name is a simplified version of his name) is buried there. Coincidentally, the production facility for his product is located on the same Airway, about 200 miles to the east, on an arrival to a major airport.

This navaid is in the United States. It has the same name and identifier as the Regional Airline-served airport nearby (and the city that it serves).
The name of the city refers to a body of water, and it was named that to attract businesses to the area.
There is a large U.S. Army base nearby.
A famous male vocalist, now deceased, named one of his albums after this city.
There are two VORs with this same name in different parts of the country. The other one is going to be decommissioned soon, sadly. THAT city, also with airline service, is named after THIS city!

Thanks for playing! Page down for the correct answer:
It's named after the nearby town. The name itself is a bit of misnomer, as it's pretty flat there. But it IS one of the highest points in the state!
Two jet routes approach it from the west, one continues to the east, and that one stops 28nm later at a waypoint. It just stops! I hate to see that. Airspace redesign.
To the south is some extremely busy training airspace.
Its location in the state is that of a component of a kitchen implement.
