There are more than 6,928 on-base housing units located on seven bases and camps throughout the island of Okinawa. More information can be found on the government housing website. All housing on the island is managed by the DoD Military Family Housing Office (MFHO) located on Kadena Air Base. All active duty accompanied personnel are required to reside on base if adequate MFH units are available and must report to MFHO within 48 to 72 hours after arrival to check in.  

To keep the process fair to all families with complete application packages, the first available unit in inventory will be offered to the first eligible family on the waitlist that has provided all required documentation.  However, we highly recommend that all families reserve lodging in the case that a home is not move-in ready upon arrival for any reason.

There are 11 base dormitories providing living quarters for unaccompanied airmen. Unaccompanied personnel E-4 and below are not authorized to live off base. For more information email kadena.UnaccompaniedHousing@us.af.mil.
