It all depends upon your career field. Not every job is available at every base. And, it all comes down to where the AF needs you, not where you want to be. After basic, you'll go to Tech School. At somepoint during tech school they will let you know what bases are available for you. You then list the bases in order. All of the sheets go in, and they pick and choose where you get to go. It may be a base in Texas or it may be in Washington state or it may be in Germany. You have no control over that. Just FYI, there is no base in El Paso. West Texas you have Dyess (Abilene), Laughlin (Del Rio), and Goodfellow (San Angelo)

there are no Air Force bases in El Paso Texas. and no you can't pick the base you want to be at. you can request a certain base and maybe get it if you are needed there because of your job. if you wan to be in El Paso then join the army. they have a base there.

Nope, now adays, when you go in since EVERYONE is doing it, chances are no, you will not get stationed in Texas, btw, no base is El Paso. You will be stationed probably anywhere but texas :) thats just how it works. But you get great pay, health benefits, and great retirement. Check out this link, it is what the Air Force is about. Look at the base locator too. You can see just how many air force bases are scattered around the united states and european countries. www.airforce.com As for waiting for a house, depends on where you are and how lucky you are. Like I said, married couples have it easy, married couples who are both in the AF even luckier. single men and women, will most likely live on base. BUT if you are lucky you will live off base (AFTER BASIC AND TECH SCHOOL) and you will be given a houing allowance so that you can pay for your apartment, ect.
