Naval Air Station Kingsville  Housing

All military personnel reporting for duty to Kingsville are required to check in at the Housing Of­fice, located on the first floor of the Administration Building on base, to de­ter­mine housing needs.  The Housing Referral Of­fice will assist you in locating suitable, affordable temporary housing in the community, or, possibly, permanent housing for your full tour at Kingsville.

Privatization

NAS Kingsville does not have government family housing available. However, we do have one Public-Private Venture (PPV), "Hunter's Cove". Both military and civilians share these living quarters. Hunter's Cove offers 3 and 4 bedroom units. Hunters come is located about 5-10 minutes from the base and is located close to shopping and schools. Pets are allowed in the PPV Housing unit. The Kingsville Police Department has jurisdiction over the private-public venture.

Eligibility

All enlisted and officer personnel with accompanying family members are eligible for housing. Assignment to a housing unit is based on family size and availability of housing units.

Availability

Because of the demand for quarters, generally, personnel must be placed on a waiting list for a varying amount of time. It is the policy of the Station to fully utilize the PPV located in Kingsville. While you are awaiting assignment to PPV housing, our Housing Welcome Center will assist you in locating suitable, affordable, temporary housing in the community, or, possibly, locating housing for your full tour at Kingsville. Your orders will instruct you to come by and check in at the Housing Welcome Center, located on base in the Command Building. There are times when immediate assignment into housing is possible, so be sure to check through the office before you make any arrangements for off-base housing.

Application

To be placed on the waiting list prior to your arrival at NAS Kingsville, you must fill out a DD Form 1746, Application for Assignment to Housing. Forward this form to the Kingsville housing office along with a copy of your official, signed orders (with detachment endorsement), and 1 copy of your page 2 ( with a "verified by" signature) or Record of Emergency Data (Marines/Army).

The PPV housing developments, Hunters Cove, allows two pets (any size - no exotic - no vicious breeds).  The pet deposit is $150 but please confirm.

Unaccompanied personnel reporting to Kingsville have a number of excellent housing choices.  Unaccompanied housing (UH) is conveniently located near the center of the base on Nimitz Ave.  The location allows immediate access to the Morale, Welfare and Recreation club facility, Navy Exchange (NEX), commissary, barber shop, Navy Federal Credit Union, library and coffee shop, which are just a short walk away.
