Fort Bragg supports approximately 53,700 troops and 14,000 civilians on-post. Some sources estimate the full base community (military personnel, families, civilians, and retirees supports about 260,000 people.

2. Community infrastructure – Schools, recreation, retail and services in the region are oriented toward supporting a large mixed community of military and civilian households — that helps foster amenities and quality of life.
3. Potential for equity growth – When you buy a brand-new home (rather than renting or buying older) you often get modern finishes, energy efficiency, lower maintenance, and typically less competition from wear-and-tear costs.
