Did you know that once a year housing allowance rates are reviewed to see see if they still match up to the cost of living in a particular area?
BAH rates either increase or decrease.
BAH rates for this year have been released and can be found here at : BAH Calculator
Feel free to share if the BAH in your area has went up or down.

ours went down by like 40 bucks! this is the one fo most expensive place to live i was hoping it would go up
Ours went up $6 dollars…….Ft. Sill
Ft Bliss, O-1. Didn’t change for us at all, and our rent is already over what we get for BAH. But he ranks up in the summer, so we’ll get more then.
A few people here are getting $4 more, $5 more, or $12 more.
We’re at Bragg and will lose $150 a month. The drop seems strange since we’re supposed to get 20k new folks due to BRAC. Oh well, Merry Christmas indeed…
Ours went down $66. however i read that because we are already living there, not pcsing and we are married that we are covered by bah protection so it SHOULDNT be changing for us.
Ft. hood’s went down 13 dollars. Booo.
Ours went down 75.00. Thank goodness we live on post is all I have to say!
Our BAH went up for both places we will be at next year. $30 at one place and almost $80 at the second place.
Ours went down by like 80 dollars! ~Fort Bragg, Nc
Ft. Drum went up $3
Ft. Hood, we are going up 4 dollars…woohoo!!!
Ours didn’t change. Naval station Norfolk
It went down $102 at Ft. Leavenworth. :(
Ft Lewis WA mine went down here $39.00
We are at Fort Lewis and it looks like ours will go down $52.
We have been at Hood for a while…the last BAH rates, we weren’t affected. Our BAH is going up by $2 again this year. Lol.
ours went down from 1077 to 1011. which kind of sucks because even with our very cheap mortgage, electricity and water add up off post and well, most of us know the houses on post are NOT worth what they charge. Oh well. no complaints here. We definitely have enough to get by.
Ours went up 78 dollars at Benning.
went down 9 fort hood
Ours went up by $88 at Colorado Springs! Better than nothing!
Ours at Ft Bragg went from $1065 to $828
Up over 100 big in TN! We’ll be moving before too long, tho! lol
