Housing

Unaccompanied Housing

Government owned UH is the home for the Army’s unaccompanied Soldiers; quality facilities and services are essential elements to single and unaccompanied Soldiers. The Army Barracks Management Program standardizes UH management Army-wide, optimizes available resources, continues the targeted investments of the barracks modernization program, and ensures the Army maintains its commitment to unaccompanied Soldiers.

Family Housing

Family Housing is spread across a number the Kasernes that make up USAG Ansbach. To prepare for an overseas move Family Housing Floor Plans are available to view prior to moving.

Important Information

It can never hurt to provide an advance application, but this will not affect the eligibility date for housing. You must first process in through the community and housing. However, if you are transferring from another duty station within USAREUR you may apply for housing 60 days in advance. If a waiting list exists you will be offered a dwelling unit in accordance with your waiting list position, regardless of style or location. If no waiting list exists and more than 1 dwelling unit is available, you may be provided a choice of available quarters. A first-in, first-out system is utilized.

No more than two dogs or cats, or a combination thereof, are authorized per Army Family Housing (AFH) dwelling unit. Other domestic pets (including birds, goldfish, and hamsters) may be kept in AFH. Exotic pets (for example, snakes) are prohibited. Pet owners will comply with local laws regarding "fighting dogs." These animals are prohibited and are not authorized in Government-controlled housing. Pets are not allowed in UPH.

Loaner furniture is provided for the time until Household Goods arrive (up to 90 days for inbound personnel), and when Household Goods get picked up during PCS departure (up to 60 days for outbound personnel). Eligible are military and DA civilians. The following furniture may be issued for the duration of the entire tour, if they are not available in your private rental quarters: Wardrobes, kitchen cabinets, range, refrigerator, dishwasher, washer and dryer. Single Soldiers (Unaccompanied Personnel Housing-UPH) may keep their authorized Government furniture for their entire tour.

Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP) does not always equate to "priority housing." Sponsors with exceptional Family members may forward a request for special housing consideration in writing to the Housing Office. The Housing Manager, in conjunction with the medical department and the Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP) Coordinator, will make a recommendation to the Garrison Commander.

If you decline adequate Government-controlled quarters, your name will be removed from the waiting list. You may reapply for quarters; your eligibility date will be the date of reapplication. If you decline adequate private rental housing, you may keep viewing other available units you are eligible for. Please note, if you are receiving temporary lodging allowance, this allowance will be terminated as a result of your declination. Please speak with your Housing Assistant prior to declining adequate housing.
