Fayetteville Neighborhoods, Adjusted for Your BAH

Common Questions

How is the BAH-adjusted affordability number calculated?
For each neighborhood's median home price, we estimate a monthly payment (principal, interest, property tax, homeowners insurance, and PMI where applicable, assuming 10% down and a 7% rate) and compare it directly to your 2026 BAH rate for the pay grade and dependency status you select. This is an estimate for planning purposes, not a loan approval.
Where does the commute time come from?
Live driving time from each neighborhood's center to Fort Liberty, via Google Maps, for neighborhoods with a mapped center point (10/15 of Fayetteville's neighborhoods currently have one). A neighborhood without a mapped center yet shows "commute data pending" honestly rather than a fake number or a stuck spinner.
Is the crime grade specific to each neighborhood?
No — it's Fayetteville's real, sourced FBI Uniform Crime Report 2025 grade (D), applied citywide. Neighborhood-level crime data isn't available for Fayetteville, so the same real number is shown for every neighborhood rather than inventing finer-grained figures.

BAH rates: Defense Travel Management Office (DTMO), effective January 1, 2026, bucketed E-1 through E-4 per DoD's own BAH rate structure. Basic pay: official DFAS basic pay tables, effective January 1, 2026 (FY2026 NDAA 3.8% raise) — unlike BAH, basic pay is grade-specific and NOT shared across E-1 through E-4. Mortgage estimates assume 10% down, a 7% fixed rate, 30-year term, Fayetteville's real Census ACS 2023 effective property tax rate, 0.5%/year homeowners insurance, and PMI where down payment is under 20% — not a loan quote or pre-approval. Commute times from Google Maps, driving, no traffic adjustment, shown only for neighborhoods with a mapped center point. Crime grade: FBI Uniform Crime Report 2025, citywide (neighborhood-level crime data not available). Individual qualification varies by lender, credit, and VA eligibility. This is not financial advice.
