Family Housing

Accompanied personnel have the option to reside in Public-Private Venture (PPV) family housing or in the local community.  Check-in at the local Navy Housing Service Center (HSC) upon arrival to the installation.  The HSC staff will assist with all of your home-finding needs.

Privatized Housing

The local HSC processes applications and refers personnel to the PPV property management company.  The property management company assigns personnel to PPV housing and should be contacted for maintenance and resident matters.  However, the HSC is your advocate, and you should contact them if you are not satisfied.  For more information about PPV housing, including eligibility requirements, visit the CNIC Headquarters PPV page. 

Renters’ insurance is strongly encouraged to protect your belongings and financial responsibility should accidents happen in your home.
 
The Housing Early Assistance Tool (HEAT) enables Service Members and their families to apply for PPV family housing prior to departure from their current command, before or after receiving permanent change of station orders.  Visit the Navy Housing Headquarters’ HEAT page to find out more. 
 
Additionally, you can obtain application forms on the above resources tab, at your nearest HSC, or you can contact the HSC to have one mailed or emailed to you.
 
Naval Air Station Patuxent River has partnered with Liberty Military Housing to offer military families outstanding housing choices.  Contact the HSC to get the most current projection of housing availability and wait list information.
 
For additional contact information, floor plans, pet policies, full resident guidelines and other neighborhood specific information regarding PPV housing, visit the Liberty Military Housing website.

There are many advantages to living on-base for single Sailors:

• Secure

Liberty Zone is centrally located for easier access by Sailors. Each unit has wall-to-wall vinyl hardwood flooring and consists of two rooms, a living room and kitchen.  Each room consists of full bathroom with vanity sink, two captain’s beds with headboard, nightstand, desk with desk chair, dresser chest, and two closets. Living room consists of a 50” smart TV, two full size sofas, end table and lamp.  Kitchen includes full-size refrigerator, microwave, iron and ironing board, washer/dryer, full size stove with oven and a disposal.  All rooms are equipped with cable, internet and phone outlets, but are the responsibility of the resident to attain these services within their room.  Linen is provided by the staff but must be maintained by the resident. 

All rooms are subject to weekly inspections and residents are required to maintain daily living standards and comply with UH rules and regulations.
