Elmendorf Air Force Base is home to the Alaska NORAD Region and the 3rd Wing. The wing is responsible for training and equipping the Air Expeditionary Force and providing tactical airlift and combat support force for the unit’s deployment worldwide. Since 2010, Elmendorf Air Force Base has been known as Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson. Several housing options are available to military personnel who want to live on or off post. Regardless of your potential living arrangements, personnel must check in at the Aurora Military Housing office located at 6350 Arctic Warrior Drive. The housing office keeps a list of available homes for purchase or rent as well as current rates for basic housing allowances for each individual rank. To leverage the BAH which is tax-free, the office recommends considering purchasing a home. Arguments can be made for the advantage to renting as well if future plans are in question. Apartment complexes are also available in the surrounding communities of Chugiak, Eagle River, and Anchorage.
