Understanding the Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) in Washington

The Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) is a vital financial resource for U.S. military personnel, designed to help with housing expenses while stationed away from their primary residence. In Washington, the BAH is adjusted based on rank, duty location, and whether the service member has dependents, ensuring that the allowance aligns with the local housing market prices.

The Department of Defense updates BAH rates annually to reflect changes in housing costs, aiding service members in maintaining financial stability. This page provides the latest BAH rates for Washington, enabling you to determine the appropriate allowance for your rank and family circumstances.

How BAH Rates are Determined

BAH rates in Washington are influenced by several key factors:

  • Location: Accounts for the varied housing costs across different Military Housing Areas (MHA) in Washington.
  • Rank: Higher ranks receive increased allowances, reflecting their broader responsibilities and housing needs.
  • Dependents: Service members with dependents are eligible for higher BAH rates to support adequate family accommodation.

The aim of BAH is to provide financial support that enables military members to secure suitable and affordable housing, promoting stability and comfort during their service period in Washington.

Using the BAH Charts

To calculate your monthly BAH in Washington, follow these steps:

  1. Identify your Military Housing Area (MHA) in Washington.
  2. Locate your pay grade (rank) in the charts provided.
  3. Check if you have dependents.

These steps will help you ascertain the precise housing allowance, facilitating effective financial management while you are stationed in Washington.

BAH Rate Charts for Washington in 2025

For 2025, the BAH rates in Washington have been updated to reflect a national average increase of about 5.4%. This adjustment ensures that the BAH rates are in harmony with local housing market trends, providing necessary support for military personnel seeking off-base housing.
