Joint Base Elmendorf - Richardson JBER  Housing

Although assignment to family housing is not mandatory (except for personnel assigned to key and essential positions), all incoming personnel are required to in-process at one of the Joint Base Elmendorf-Richarson Housing Offices. The JBER-Richardson Housing Office is located in Building 600, Room 106 and can be reached by phone at 907-384-3907. The JBER-Elmendorf Housing Office is located at 6346 Arctic Warrior Drive and can be reached by phone at 907-552-4439. The Housing Office will talk to you about your housing options, the Rental Partnership Program, temporary loaner furniture and other important information to know before signing a lease agreement.

A great resource to find housing is the military homes website. This is a Department of Defense endorsed site which provides off-post housing listings.  

Single Service Member Housing

All Army personnel are required to sign-in at the In-processing Center in Building 600. After assignment to a specific military unit, soldiers will be directed to the appropriate single soldier building manager for assignment to a permanent barracks room. Senior enlisted and officers have the option of living on post if units are available. Bachelor housing units are two-story, one-bedroom condo-style units, which include a full kitchen and living area on the first floor and bedroom, office, bathroom and full laundry on the second floor. There is open space in the basement for storage.
