I've been at APG since March 06 and it's not all that great. It's being affected by BRAC, so housing sucks. I'm not sure about the barracks. I've seen some and they aren't bad, but I think it all depends on your MOS and unit. There isn't a high deployment rate from here, so that's a plus.

The post is small. There are actually 2 small bases about 15 miles apart. Aberdeen side is where the PX and everything is. Edgewood is even smaller. The PX isn't anything special.

Aberdeen itself isn't a bad little town. Edgewood is pretty ghetto...a good amount of violence. Off base housing can get expensive b/c people are moving out of Baltimore and into Harford County. Which means that the gangs and violence are up here too.

Baltimore is about a 30-45 min drive. DC and Philly are a couple of hrs. There's never a lack of stuff to do...as far as clubs, concerts, shows, etc. But paying tolls to get there can cost more than the events...okay, maybe that's an exaggeration.

If you have any more questions, you can email me...emily.willis@us.army.mil.
