Eielson AFB has 1491 family housing units; however, the number of
available units will fluctuate during the next few years. An extensive
renovation program will decrease our inventory while increasing square footage
and modernizing units to accommodate present-day lifestyles.
Housing is
allocated equally to each grade category, including junior enlisted, and each
unit is equipped with a refrigerator, stove, washer, dryer, dishwasher and
garbage disposal. Waiting time depends on rank, date of rank, length of service,
family composition and reporting date.
Don't forget to go to the Housing
Office at your current location and fill out an advance housing application as
soon as you have a hard copy of your orders!
Just a reminder, no more
than two pets per family are allowed in base housing. Small, caged pets, such as
hamsters, are an exception to the two pet limit. Dormitory residents can have
pets too - fish, caged birds, hamsters or gerbils.
The following is a
breakdown of the current number of houses available on Eielson according to
grade. We no longer break out Junior NCO and Junior Enlisted (all are Junior
Enlisted E1-E6).
