Hey everyone! my husband has his orders to report to Lemoore on the 14th of August, Im trying to leave with him to get there together. we will be coming from San Diego and I wanted to know if we can apply for on base housing from here or do we have to be there to do it? I was looking at the lincoln military housing and wanted to get some opinions or advice on how to go about this process. Also does anyone know if there is a waitlist or how long it would take to get a house?

Where do u take your girls for ballet and tumbling? My daughter was doing that back home as well and I would love to put her in that here
Its here on base at the youth center next time you or your husband come on base you should check it out but if you don't want to do them on base I've looked into a few off base just Google it they are a bit more expensive though then the classes they offer here.
Ok cool, ill def check it out. Thanks!
Oh and btw, there's a large house next door to where I live right in downtown lemoore for rent for $975/mo if anyone is interested. There's schools, library, parks, shops, pretty much in the middle of everything so its pretty nice. I think its 2 beds not quite sure but has 2 family rooms, 2 fireplaces, large backyard, washer and dryer and fruit trees. Just a little fyi (:
Hey Ladies! My name is Sarah and my husband and I just moved to Lemoore in the middle of July. Just wanted to let you know that a few Navy wives and I meet every Tuesday morning for coffee/pastries at a coffee shop in Lemoore. Let me know if anyone is interested and I can give you the info.
Look forward to meeting new people!
I am new to Lemoore also. Coffee/pastries meetups sounds fun to do! I would like to go to next week's but it's my bday and I got plans..but definitely the week after! =).

Hi! I don't know how to answer your housing application answer but when we got here we stayed at the navy lodge for about a week until we found a place off base. We also went into the housing office first day we were here and got on the waiting list for a 2 bedroom which is 4 to 6 months long but apparently if u qualify or request a 3 or 4 bedroom the wait is not long at all because there are more of those houses available. If you do decide you want to live on base and are put on a waiting list, the housing office will give you a paper with all the apartments that participate in the RPP program which is where you don't have to pay deposit and don't have to commit to long term leases so that when you are called you can move out right away and into on base. Also if you really want to just live off base, there are a lot of places that you can find here for less than the BAH. We moved into a 2 bedroom house for $875/mo and we just have to pay gas and electric. There's a huge house next door for rent that is for $975 but I don't know what is included with the rent. A lot of apartments around here are pretty cheap as well if you guys want an apartment. I'm pretty new here still too but hope this kinda helps. BTW, I'm transferring to the old navy here in hanford and I know they will be hiring in october if u wanted to apply. A lot of retail stores hire around that time too. Where r u guys moving here from?
Hey navywife27, I suggest you wait to get onbase housing because it convenient to everything you need when your husband is deployed and you do want a home, not an apartment. The waiting list is not long at all. I waited 3-4 weeks and I stayed at the navy lodge for only 10 days (not even 2 weeks). If you decide to live out in town, you will not be saving any money because you and/or you husband will be driving alot and electricity & gas can be very expensive during summer & winter season. Versus living onbase, you can run your AC or Heater all day long. lol.
