Duty Station
As headquarters for the Department of Defense, The Pentagon is one of the most famous military installations in the world. Located in Arlington, Virginia, the Pentagon was completed in the 1943 and is one of the world’s largest office buildings. There are about 23,000 military and civilian employees in addition to 3,000 non-defense support personnel at the Pentagon.
With a Metro rail station in the basement of The Pentagon itself, commuting to the facility is easy and personnel tend to live all over the region, particularly in Arlington, Alexandria and Fairfax County in Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
Here are recommended areas to live given your assigned duty station. This is is not inclusive to all areas in the region, therefore if you’d like additional information on any location, whether listed or not, just let us know.
