ON-Post Housing
Fort Carson is proud to be the first Army installation to have privatized housing. Housing is available for all ranks. Housing units range in size from two to four bedrooms. Some housing is handicap accessible. Leasing, assignments and terminations of on-post housing are conducted by Balfour Beatty Communities, located in Building 6800, Prussman Boulevard. Stoves, dishwashers and refrigerators are provided and hook-ups for washers and dryers are in all homes. Residents are responsible for gas/electric use in excess of an established baseline per the Department of the Army Resident Responsibility Program. Residents may also receive a refund each month for conserving.

Water, wastewater and refuse service is provided, and telephone and cable service is available at the residents' expense. Balfour Beatty Communities maintains waiting lists for different groupings (junior enlisted, senior enlisted, junior officer, etc.) when demand in each grouping exceeds the housing supply.

Soldiers from anywhere in the world can access information by visiting the Balfour Beatty Communities website at http://www.fortcarsonfamilyhousing.com or by calling 579-1606.  read more...
