Housing Options
On-Base Housing - Living on-base at Fort Carson is a convenient option, but keep in mind that availability can be limited, and there may be waitlists. On-base housing gives you access to a range of amenities like fitness centers, daycare services, medical facilities, and parks.
Off-Base Housing - If you’re looking for more options, off-base housing opens up a variety of neighborhoods and homes to choose from. It’s a great opportunity to buy a home and start building equity. Just be aware of the additional costs like utilities, internet, and maintenance that come with off-base living. The flexibility and potential investment make it worth exploring!
Temporary Lodging - If you need a place to stay during your transition, Fort Carson offers on-post lodging at the Colorado Inn for a convenient option. For those seeking off-post alternatives, there are plenty of hotels nearby, especially around I-25 and Lake Avenue, giving you easy access to the base and the surrounding area.
