I can honestly say when the government builds something they build it right. Of course too...code requires them to. In one instance they saved some old living facilities...what was once housing for a family of four they turned into housing for a family of six to eight. This is no joke...they took what was once a multi-family dwelling unit that could house ten families and turned it into a multi-family dwelling unit that will now house five families. I walked through several of those old housing units...and for as old as they were they were in very good shape. Judging from what I saw...I'm under the assumption that a military family is no longer a family of three or four...but more like five or six because in this multi-family dwelling unit I described, these were units that were being turned into five-bedroom units, two full baths, a powder room (toilet/sink), family room, etc...
