On Post Vs. Off Post Housing
You will receive less COLA if you live on post than you would if you lived off post. This reduction in COLA reflects your lower living expenses. Overseas Housing Allowance, however, is completely independent from COLA and the amount you receive in COLA will not affect your Overseas Housing Allowance.

Famous quotes containing the words post and/or housing:
“I can forgive even that wrong of wrongs,
Those undreamt accidents that have made me
Seeing that Fame has perished this long while,
Being but a part of ancient ceremony
Notorious, till all my priceless things
Are but a post the passing dogs defile.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“We have been weakened in our resistance to the professional anti-Communists because we know in our hearts that our so-called democracy has excluded millions of citizens from a normal life and the normal American privileges of health, housing and education.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
