    • Yvette you would want to check into the Mililani area. You can use the Army Referral Housing Network Site or militarybyowner.com …Mililani is a very nice town and very close to Schofield. You can also look into Kapolei and Waikele.

  3. My son will be stationed in schofield barracks in January, 2013. He is a 2nd Lieutenant and single. He said he would like to live off base. He does not have any furniture so he was thinking of trying to find a furnished condo/apartment. Does anyone have any suggestions. If he does find an apartment that is not furnished, where can he buy furniture at a reasonable price? What area are safer than others to live also?

  4. Me and my Wife will be PCSING to Hawaii in March she will be working @ FT Shafter and I will be working on Schofield and I was wondering where could we live that splits Scofield and Shafter?
