Well the first thing you should about living in that particular spot, is that there will be Italians.

Hi! My husband finishes tech school in July, and we are going to Aviano as well, in August! As far as housing goes, are you single or married? If you are single, you will be staying on base, so you won't be getting BAH. If you are married, the housing is different than other bases. There is no on base housing, but there are government leased units that serve like base housing. It's rent free, so no BAH. You can also choose to live in the economy housing, or "off base" housing, but I have read that that is pretty difficult if you don't speak italian. Here are a couple of sites that I have found to be extremely helpful! http://afrc.avianoab.info/ http://apps.mhf.dod.mil/pls/psgprod/f?p=132:CONTENT:820618679597355::NO::P4_INST_ID:2380 I hope this helps!
