Key Insights for NAS Kingsville

  • An E-5 with dependents receives $1,788/month — that's $21,456/year in tax-free housing money to cover costs in the Corpus Christi, TX market.

  • Texas has no state income tax on military pay, meaning your BAH, base pay, and special pays go further here than in high-tax states.

  • BAH is designed to cover median rental costs — not average or premium rents. Members living in above-median housing pay the difference out of pocket; those in below-median housing keep the surplus.
