    About half of counties (about 1,500) in the United States have little to no military population. When less than 2% of service members eligible for BAH are within a zip code, County Cost Groups (CCGs) determine BAH rate. Use the BAH Calculator to enter your zip code to determine your Military Housing Area or County Cost Group. They range from ZZ510 to ZZ890 in increments of 10.

    Military bases in Alabama:

    BAH rates listed are for all branches of the military; Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marines, Navy, Space Force and Reserves forces, where applicable. BAH rates in high-cost areas will be much greater than those in low-cost areas.

    Veterans, dependents, National Guardsmen and reservists can use the MHA Calculator to see estimated monthly payments. Active-duty service members should use the BAH Calculator or tables to see their estimated monthly payments.
