MCIPAC Housing
Welcome Aboard
 
Welcome to the Marine Corps Installations Pacific (MCIPAC) housing page maintained by the Assistant Chief of Staff, Facilities (AC/S GF).  This site includes general information about the housing options at our supported installations and links to applicable policies, application forms, and housing office websites.  These resources are intended to orient incoming personnel, their families and sponsors to the range of housing options throughout the Pacific region.  All are encouraged to speak with a housing specialist at the installation regarding individual entitlements, preferences and housing availability.
For more information please watch our video: Family Housing in Okinawa
 
Accompanied Housing
 
Accompanied members are eligible for military family housing.  In Okinawa, the Air Force 18th Wing is the executive agent for all family housing and operates the family housing office aboard Kadena Air Base for all services. Marine Corps Base Camp Butler (MCBB) is a single installation encompassing Marine Corps camps throughout Okinawa.  Marine Corps Air Station Futenma (MCASF) is a separate Marine Corps installation in Okinawa.  Family housing is available at Camp Courtney, Camp McTureous, Camp Foster, Camp Lester, Camp Kinser and Kadena Air Base.  The Live Where You Work policy governs housing assignments to minimize commuting distance for service members.  See the associated web pages for other applicable housing assignment policies.  Based on availability of suitable family housing, some families will have the opportunity to seek off-base rental housing with the assistance of a housing referral specialist. 
At Marine Corps Base Hawaii (MCBH), family housing is operated by a public-private venture (PPV) contractor similar to many installations within the continental United States.  Refer to the MCBH housing website for information about PPV housing options.  At Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni (MCASI), family housing is operated by the installation for all service members.  A range of newly constructed and renovated housing is available.  Refer to the MCASI housing website for details. 
All inbound accompanied service members must check in with the housing office upon arrival.
 
Unaccompanied Housing
 
Unaccompanied personnel may be assigned to bachelor enlisted quarters (BEQ) or bachelor officer quarters (BOQ) at their installation.  Based on availability of suitable unaccompanied housing, some members will be afforded the opportunity to seek off-base rental housing with the assistance of a housing referral specialist.  All inbound unaccompanied personnel must check in with the unaccompanied housing office.   Members on accompanied orders are considered unaccompanied if their dependents delay travel.  In these cases, members will occupy unaccompanied housing until they are joined by their dependents and qualify for military family housing.
 
Special Notices
 
Special Note about Okinawa Family Housing Renovation
The 18th Wing has undertaken a comprehensive renovation program that will invest nearly $500 million over five years from 2017-2021 to renovate military family housing aboard Okinawa.  The work will be executed in phases such that various housing areas will be unavailable for assignment during this period.  Accordingly, more families will be required to live off base during the renovation period.  Personnel living off base enjoy the same access to DODEA schools, AAFES shopping and other on-base resources as those living in military family housing. 
* For examples of off-base housing, please visit: HOMES.mil (use "Kadena AB" in the search menu). This site shows a wide variety of off-base housing options.  Keep in mind that all housing searches first begin with a visit to the housing office at Kadena Air Base.
Special Note about Temporary Lodging
Inbound personnel may occupy temporary lodging awaiting an on-base housing assignment or an off-base rental.  Accompanied personnel require a certificate of non-availability (CNA) from the transient lodging facility (TLF) to utilize off-base temporary lodging.  The WestPac Inn is the Marine Corps TLF aboard Camp Foster.  Unaccompanied personnel must obtain a CNA from the unaccompanied housing office to be eligible for TLA.  A CNA from the TLF does not create a TLA entitlement for unaccompanied personnel.
Special note about Camp Mujuk and Combined Arms Training Center (CATC) Fuji
Camp Mujuk and CATC Fuji currently have very few accompanied positions for military and civilian personnel.  Family housing and referral services are available at adjacent installations such as Naval Air Station (NAS) Atusgi in Japan and U.S. Army Garrison Daegu in Korea.  Contact either the installation or the MCIPAC housing liaison in Okinawa for additional information.
