Very pro military and diverse community, close close to the beaches and mountains are the top pros for me. Crime is an issue here however as with other places being aware of your surroundings is always a good way to help stay safe.

Pros:
It’s a great place to start.
Good gyms.
You’ll pt.
You’ll get your jumps.
You’ll more than likely deploy.
Not to far from the beaches.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder though, so you’ll find your own pros.
Cons:
Number of occupants on Bragg is very high now, I don’t have exact numbers.
Traffic.

I loved bragg for the 6 years i was there and trying to get back there after my current assignment.
Other than fayetteville, you can find some great nice places to live. You can do quick trips to the beach or up to the larger cities in NC.
What unit are you going to? My first assignment was the 82nd, wasn't a huge fan of it as a private ha, but that was due to bad leadership and would not mind going back now. I then did some time in USASOC which was a phenomenal assignment.

SGT (Join to see) OH yeah going sfab shouldn't be too bad st all, good bonus eh?
One of my buddies left my last unit for the sfab unit there, almost everyone I've talked to likes it.
Side question, were you able to specify bragg for sfab unit?
I am almost in my window and will be reenlisting for either bragg itself or sfab if I can guarantee bragg for my family's sake.

It’s a pretty good bonus you get for at least 1 year with the SFAB!
I was originally set for Ft. Carson, but luckily I knew an old AIT instructor in the unit who out-processed. I was able to weasel a By-name select to take his spot.
From the looks of it... it’s wherever they need you at, but you are able to contact their G1 to try for elsewhere. It seemed that we had to be very flexible once passing assessment and selection. We even had people change MOS to join in. WO1 (Join to see)
