I have a wife and a 2 year old daughter and will be PCSing in April, we are looking into getting on post housing and getting on the list as soon as possible, but we’re wondering which neighborhoods were the best? Thanks

Good luck with any housing on post, period. You have to be physically signed in to JBLM before they even consider putting you on the list. And the cost of living vs BAH vs quality of life out here is ridiculous so best of wishes if you can find somewhere in town.

Oof thanks. I’ve lived in Houston my whole life before so I’m used to cheap CoL, not looking forward to it increasing

I live in Carter Lake housing and my neighbors are nice. Lots of kids running around and playing together.

You won’t get a choice. You will go on a long list. You should exert your energy in finding suitable off-post housing.

It's kind of a moot point. On post housing is so backed up, especially with the houses shut down due to mold and other issues, that you're lucky if you get on post at all.
