Finding Affordable Omaha Homes Near Offutt Air Force Base
Omaha’s nearness to Offutt AFB in Bellevue makes it a great location to settle down for military families. As personnel return home from conflicts around the world, they’ll have to make a lot of decisions on where to relocate a family for the long term. They should definitely give some consideration to the Omaha area.
The residents of Omaha do a great job of mixing city life with the casual rural lifestyle. There’s a hometown feeling among the people who live in Omaha, probably due to its roots in farming. The corn fields are not so distant that residents have forgotten their roots (or their manners).
With rural lifestyles so close at hand, one is never too far from the beauty of the outdoors. It is quite a short drive (in fact, a short walk, depending on where you choose to live) to the beautiful Missouri River, where you’ll find three seasons (at least) worth of fun. Boating on the river is a popular pastime, especially for those who like to fish for some bass every so often. But water sports are also popular on the river, and you’ll find water skiers out all summer long.
If you are a military family, you probably already know that Bellevue is the home of the base. But there are many neighborhoods around the City that are close to Offutt, and they are good choices for school districts as well as homes.
If you’re looking for Omaha real estate, it’s a good idea to check out Bellevue homes as well, of course. But also take a look at Papillion-La Vista, a community on the southeast side of Omaha. You can find a list of some of the more popular Omaha neighborhoods here.
