Just got back from Krock, on a housing hunting list... The PPV is NOT a good deal unless you are an ENS or have 2 roomates (Rent tied to BAH).
The Apt's I saw for $500ish, were how to say, ghettolicious.. My bike would probably be jacked there (no garages). And I still have to get a storage unit to keep my stuff in..
1) Get a REAL quantity on how it will affect taxes.
2) Can you walk or bike to the squadron this way and save gas money from out in town.
3) Can anybody here ballpark numbers for utilities out in town for wherever the hell this place is?
4) Is there a such thing as BOQ wherever the hell this place is?
5) Would a chick who would go for a dude like you also go for a dude who lives in a trailor? I'm reminded of that line in Office Space.
1- About $3000 less liability a years (so maybe $500 extra on refund)
2-Squadron is about a 5 min walk or less, OClub is a 2 min walk.
3-PPV claims $180 a month for average utilis year round
4-BOQ is transient only AFAIK.. And I lose ALL of my BAH ($1300/mo) and DLA ($1600ish)
5-Don't give a flyin fvck what the chicks think... The locals are not hot.
