One thing unmentioned, and I don’t think this totally makes up for it but it’s worth considering, is people stationed on the base will spend a lot of their pay in the local area. The areas around military bases can make a lot of money from military personnel, even if they aren’t being paid directly.
How much do they get paid for the military base?

How much is it worth to you to not be forced into personally housing military soldiers in your home ?
