The area actually has an extremely high cost of living
Gas, food and utilities are high than anywhere else I’ve lived
The town actually puts a surcharge on gas and electricity and that’s how the town makes money.
The housing market is extremely fricked here. The 1/4 of town that isn’t the ghetto the avg house goes for $1200-1600 a month in rent or runs your about $220k to buy.
The problem is the military housing allowance here maybe can cover 2/3 of that.
Of all my assignments this the only one where base housing is a max capacity bc even the officers can’t afford to live off base
