Fort Polk's family housing areas are divided into distinct neighborhoods with individual character. Each neighborhood has its own Neighborhood Manager and a dedicated office staff and maintenance team. The old centralized housing office concept has given way to customer-friendly neighborhood offices serving each individual neighborhood.
Picerne Military Housing brings strong experience in the development and management of residential property. We adapt the best commercial practices; yet pay heed to military traditions. Just as a large commercial development may have homes of various sizes and configurations ranging from modest town houses to more spacious single-family homes, so too will Fort Polk's neighborhoods incorporate housing for a variety of ranks. Each neighborhood will contain sub-neighborhoods for each of five different pay-grade groups that include JNCO, SNCO, CGO and FGO. The E9 and O6/O7 ranks will reside in two newly planned neighborhoods based around the golf course.
Neighborhood Centers
The first Neighborhood Center at Fort Polk opened in September 2007 in Palmetto Terrace. By the fall of 2010, a new Neighborhood Center will have been constructed in each neighborhood, even though the construction period for all new homes will extend to 2015. This means that families living in existing homes will soon have access to amenities located right in their neighborhood that rival those found off post in other areas of the country in luxurious modern developments.
