I am moving from Milton Fl, to Jacksonville Fl for the FRS. I am having trouble finding a place to live that isnt in a bad part of town or out of my BAH range for an O-1.

Anyone that has lived there or has a suggestion?

I'm too lazy to go find the link, what's your BAH...and how long will you be an O-1?

When I was looking for places, it was back in 2008 and there wasn't much around Mayport. It's probably a bit better now with all the houses that won't sell, but I was looking around the area between Girvin and Kernan and there were several places that were around that price range. I found a 3/2 that was pretty new for $1295. They never raised the rent on me for 3 years and the neighborhood was crime-free. I'm not saying it's all like that, but the general area is pretty nice and it's a short trip to NRB. There was nothing on the beach at the time, which I wasn't too upset about, as that can be hit and miss.

Have you tried going through a realtor/property manager? Watson seems to be everywhere, as a FYI.

And $1268 for O-1???? I was O-4 single and mine was around $1400. You're making good money!

Beaches, southside, hodges/kernan. Don't live outside the gate at Mayport, it's a shit hole. The new on base housing there looks pretty damn sweet, but who knows when you'd actually get into it.

I have a home in Covenant Cove (Beach blvd/Hodges) that just became available for rent. It will be available to move in November 1st. I've been renting it for $1400, but can come down depending on how long you're planning on being there. Here's a link to the site it is posted on: http://navytonavyhomes.com/ then go to 'ourlistings' and then 'homes for rent' and mine is 2881 Covenant Cove Drive.
