Destin Florida     While living in the Fort Rucker / Enterprise Alabama area there are many day trips to take on the weekends. During the FT Rucker Elementary School Fall Break, we took a trip to Destin Florida.  The total miles from Fort Rucker was about 105 miles. Heading south on Hwy 27 we drove through Clayhatchee & Geneva Alabama. Passing the Florida state line and headed for the sandy beaches we passed through De Funiak Springs, Rock Hill, Freeport, Santa Rosa Beach and finally the destination of Destin Florida.    Spending the day at Beasley Park in Okaloosa County, we enjoyed the gentle breeze the ocean brought onto shore.  The skies were overcast and I was able to get some interesting pictures of the clouds passing us by.  The seagulls came in masses as we feed them the extra b...

Relocating to Enterprise, Alabama will allow you to live in an environment that seamlessly combines the grace of the Old South with the vibrancy of the much heralded New South. This sometimes indescribable charm is evident from the first moment you arrive here, and something that both newcomers and long-time residents alike say is the reason they will never move away. Enterprise, Alabama has become one of America's top retirement destinations. The combination of the city's affordability, extremely low crime rates, and well-maintained neighborhoods make this an ideal relocation destination. In fact, the venerable Consumers Digest named Enterprise, Alabama as "One of the Top Twenty-Five Best and Most Affordable Retirement Sites in the Country." This incredibly high praise comes as no surp...

FORT RUCKER - BAH RATES INCREASED 2008 Included in Fort Rucker Online Relocation Guide   -  Enterprise AL : Home of Fort Rucker U.S. ARMY Aviation Training Center. Original Post: www.Activerain.com Living on-post has changed drastically. Fort Rucker  in the past few years has gone to a privatized management company. FT Rucker's on post housing is no longer handled by the US Army, but by Picerne Military Housing Management Company. The thought of waiting until retirement to purchase a home has become a thing of the past.  Active Duty Military families are now opting to make their tax-free BAH (Basic Allowance for Housing) build equity in home ownership.  Now could be the perfect time in the Fort Rucker / Enterprise area to purchase a home. Market statistics suggest that the FT Rucker are...

  FORT RUCKER ON-POST HOUSING MOCK UTILITY BILL ROLLS OUT NOVEMBER 1, 2008 Information included in the Fort Rucker Relocation Guide While relocating to FT Rucker late last year, the decision to live on Post was undetermined.  The convenience of living on Fort Rucker was topping our list.  At the time, the BAH rates had not risen.  After evaluating the rental cost, utilities, commuting time and the convenience, living on post seemed to be the better financial alternative. In Jan. 2008 the BAH rates rose for the FT Rucker area, closing the gap of the better financial alternative. Last week, I received a letter from Picerne Military Housing (the privatized housing management company) that got me to thinking about my alternative housing choice. The Department of Defense (DOD) has implemente...
