Base Housing & Dormitories Housing - On Base
The
base has five distinct housing areas. The most unusual are the 156
"bricks" built between 1885 and 1933. These have placed Warren on the
national historic preservation list. Among the largest are the
expansive senior officer homes. The officer bricks start at 2,500
square feet and most include oak floors, cathedral ceilings and a
fireplace. Sergeant's Row bricks are reserved for junior NCOs. Carlin
Heights, built in 1987, has 265 two-, three-, and four-bedroom units in
duplex, triplex and four-plex layouts. Carlin Heights’ homes range from
1,000 to 1,500 square feet and are located behind the commissary/BX
complex. Capehart/MCP homes were built in the 1960s and are located
behind the medical clinic. Capehart has 100 three- and four-bedroom
homes with basements. They average 1,200 square feet. The MCP homes for
junior NCOs are four-plex units with 1,200 square feet plus a basement.
MCP homes for senior NCOs are three- and four-bedroom units with
approximately 1,300 square feet plus a basement. The Atlas housing area
was completed in the summer of 2000. There are 210 one- and two-story
units that are 1,200 square feet. These are all three-bedroom junior
NCO units.
Housing - Off Base
One of
your first stops should be the housing referral office, Bldg. 306.
Regulations require a visit to the referral office before renting or
buying off-base housing. The office will provide current listings of
available rental and sale properties and any current sanctions against
landlords you can't rent from. The housing referral office can also
provide a map of Cheyenne, information about schools, the
landlord/tenant laws and a copy of the military clause. Although F.E. Warren is located next to the city of Cheyenne, off-base
housing is not abundant. Working with a realtor to locate housing may
be beneficial. Of course it may be more difficult to find housing if
you have a large family or pets. Don't rule out purchasing a home in
Cheyenne. There are many Bank Owned homes that may be available for
about the same cost of your monthly rent.
Single-family rental
homes are not as abundant, but don't despair. There may be options to
purchase a less expensive home or rent with the option to purchase.
F.E. Warren has no government mobile home facilities, but there
are several mobile home parks in the area. Lot Rent for mobile home
parks ranges from $200 - $250. A pet can severely limit your options as
few landlords allow them. If you're fortunate to find a rental that
accepts pets, you may have to pay a non-refundable deposit.
People
interested in purchasing a home will find a fair selection in most
areas of the city. The estimated cost of a three-bedroom home averages
$117,000 - $150,000, depending on location, structure and design. To

in the grades of E-5 and above may draw Basic Allowance for Housing and
live off base. Single airmen E-4 and below who wish to live off base
are put on the BAH waiting list, which is prioritized by rank.
