Jacksonville / Camp Lejuene area re: base housing increasing
i have heard that the base is taking up a lot of new land and developing a ton of new housing (in the thousands) in order to keep the military families living on base opposed to off base. I have heard it will be mandatory as well. granted this is all speculative and potential rumor mill, but wondering if anyone has heard anything about this?
i have been considering Jacksonville a great place to invest but i feel like that would really turn the market upside down if that does in fact end up happening.

@Jason, to my knowledge they cannot FORCE anybody to live in base housing. They can open up more, and clear up waiting lists, but you can use your BAH how you, and your family, deem best.
