About the lookup

Official BAH data

Every displayed rate comes from an exact retained annual record.

Rates are sourced from annual data published by the Defense Travel Management Office. If an exact year, location, grade, and dependent-status record is unavailable, MilitaryRealEstate does not calculate or substitute a rate. Visit the official BAH rate lookup.
