Can part time National Guard live in on base housing if they meet certain requirements? If so, what are they and what steps do I take?

You can on Fort Hood. Housing there will take just about everyone, non-military Civilians included to fill the space.

It depends on the base and housing availability. For instance, L.A. Air Force Base allows National Guard to stay there at a reduced rate based on rank, but as a reservist you are lower on the priority wait list. I am certain it will be the same at other bases with obvious differences in rates and availability. That being said, the only way to know for sure is to call base housing. Asking such a generic question on here (and without even specifying the base you are talking about) isn't going to get you much information.

PFC (Join to see) to amplify Chief's answer. Short answer, call the Housing Office and ask if they are accepting applications from ARNG in your grade. The longer answer is if the installation is privatized, they have occupancy requirements under the ground lease. If the Private Partner doesn't have sustained occupancy for a period in the ground lease, they have a priority list cooperatively developed with the Garrison Command. The priority list goes all the way until you hit civilians with no military connection. It's also called the waterfall. My waterfall had nine categories, but each ground lease differs. There is no way for people to really tell the occupancy and the place on the waterfall other than a really short wait list and calling the housing office. I had AGRs living on Picatinny Arsenal due to the waterfall.
Are you prepared to pay the BAH equivalent for your grade? They may also have a commercial flat rate that is more like the going market off post.
