alpnkckr,

Thank you for enlisting and beginning your service here.

Are you going to be on based in barracks or are they going to be putting you off base? Not sure where you will be stationed either? Pendleton? San Diego County is massive so probably when you give us an idea of where you will be locally, everyone can give their input respectively.

Oh one last thing, in California no one calls it "Cali" except tourists.

We need to know which base. As soon as you get your orders stating which base you'll be stationed at, let us know and we can give you more information. If you just enlisted, I'm not sure if you can live off base, your rank may not be high enough, but your family will be able live off base.

You may want to post your living off base question on the Military Forum. There are lots of people that can give you more information on living on off base right after enlistment.
