With Fort Rucker, Alabama serving as the Home of Army Aviation, there are a constant stream of soldiers coming into and out of the base. Here in Dothan, which is about 20-30 minutes from the base, we see many soldiers choose to live here because of the greater access to restaurants, entertainment, and various other things that enhance their experience in southeast Alabama. Fort Rucker is easily accessed via US Hwy 84 West, or US Hwy 231 North. From the west side of Dothan, it is usually a 15-20 minute drive once you get on Hwy 84.

Housing options on base

Picerne Family Housing has this website for those looking to live on base. They have tons of information about the different housing options on Fort Rucker. Base housing is currently undergoing a $162 million dollar revitalization with the construction and refurbishment of 1,476 family housing units. 

Rentals off base

Enterprise, Ozark,and Daleville are located just outside the gates of Fort Rucker, and offer lots of rental properties for soldiers stationed here. We recommend CENTURY 21 Regency Realty in Enterprise of CENTURY 21 Gateway Realty in Ozark for your rental needs in either of these towns. If you are looking to rent in or around Dothan, visit our sister company’s website at dothanforrent.com

Buying a home

If you are interested in purchasing a home, whether it be in Dothan, Enterprise, Ozark, or Daleville, we can help. As I mentioned above, many soldiers choose to live here in Dothan, or somewhere between Dothan and Fort Rucker that is convenient to both. Wicksburg could be considered the halfway point between the two.

Subdivisions and towns on the west side of Dothan that would make for an easy drive to Fort Rucker include:

• Chapelwood - Median price of $136,000 in 2007
• Brentwood - Median of $181,500 
• Westbrook - Median price of $330,000 in 2007
• The Highlands - Median of $340,000
• Wicksburg – Median of $169,000
