For many families, living in government housing provides easy access to a wealth of community services and amenities such as schools, youth programs, Commissary/Exchange, and food services. This is especially true in overseas locations where you will find yourself dependent on the support facilities and services on the installation much more than those in the U.S. Living within government housing provides a safe and secure place to reside and provides a mentoring and supportive environment for families.
Effective 1 Sep 2009, an "On-Base First" Family Housing (FH) policy was established for active duty accompanied members and mil to mil co-located in Misawa. If on-base family housing is available upon your arrival, members must accept an on-base family housing unit that meets your grade and family size IAW AFI 32-6001.
This includes:
- Members on an accompanied tour with command sponsored dependents authorized to reside with them
- Military-Married-to-Military couples assigned to same or adjacent base and reside jointly
- Designated Key and Essential DOD Civilian with a transportation agreement
Contact the Housing Management Office (HMO) if you have any questions about the housing eligibility criteria at this location.
Misawa Government Housing
We offer government housing in 2 different locations:
- Main Base
- North Area
Our inventory consists of more than 1,600 Townhome and/or Tower units. Unaccompanied members E1 - E4 are only authorized 10% of full JFTR. All other accompanied and unaccompanied Air Force personnel with a permanent change of station (PCS) to Misawa AB are authorized full JFTR weight allowance. Due to the smaller size of government quarters, accompanied personnel are encouraged NOT to ship their full JFTR weight allowance. We highly recommend that you utilize your non-temporary storage (NTS) entitlement at origin. In the event you ship your full JFTR weight allowance, Misawa AB does not have storage facilities to accommodate excess household items. Local rental storage units are also very limited. Housing and the Traffic Management Office (TMO) will not ship items back to the continental US (CONUS) for non-temporary storage (NTS).
Housing amenities include stove, dishwasher, refrigerator, washer and dryer. The Furnishing Management Office will also provide an array of basic furniture items such as beds, sofa, table, chairs, etc. The Airman and Family Readiness Center (AFRC) has a Loan Locker that provides additional amenities to include pots and pans, plates, cups, small appliances, ect. Both the FMO and the AFRC household furnishings issued are only authorized until the arrival of your household goods.
Pets
Certain dog breeds are prohibited to be taken/shipped to Japan under PCS orders to III MEF or MCB Japan (i.e, Pit Bulls, Rotweilers and Canid-Wolf Hybrids). Per AF directives, certain aggressive dog breeds are prohibited in all military family housing (i.e, Pit Bulls, Doberman Pinscher, Rotweilers, Chow, Wolf Hybrids, etc). Exotic animals such as, but not limited to, reptiles, rodents (other than hamsters and guinea pigs), ferrets, hedgehogs, skunks, rats, raccoons, squirrels, pot bellied pigs, monkeys, arachnids, or any farm animals are not permitted in government housing.
Not all housing is pet friendly; all efforts will be made to accommodate families with pets. The non-availability of pet friendly housing is not a justification to turn down a housing offer. Pets (cats and dogs) are authorized in single family units, townhouses, and multiplex homes. Before making arrangements to bring a pet to Misawa, you are strongly encouraged to contact the Housing Office at least 30 days prior to arrival to ensure pet friendly housing is available. Having a pet does not guarantee you placement in a particular housing unit. Placement is based on availability and the member's entitlement. Only two pets are allowed in family housing.
Applying for Government Housing
Please submit an advance application for assignment (DD Form 1746) through the HMO at your losing installation with a complete copy of your PCS orders. The effective date of the application is the date you depart your prior installation (including members with TDY in route) or the date ordered to active duty. Please be sure your application identifies and includes supporting documentation for an impending promotion or gain of dependents so that you can be placed on the appropriate waiting list.
Applications can also be submitted upon arrival during your first visit to the HMO. HMO staff will be able to assist in the completion of the application and will review PCS orders and housing options with you. All incoming personnel must report to the HMO within 24 hours of arriving.
Community Amenities
