Barksdale Air Force Base

Welcome to the home of the Mighty B-52 Bomber & Barksdale Air Force Base! This is very special to me, as I personally served active duty in the USAF, with Barksdale AFB being my last assignment. Arriving in this area in 2000, I have now lived here longer than anywhere in the world I have lived. Barksdale is surrounding by very supportive military towns. We have something for everyone. Whether your idea of the perfect place is in the city, with shopping and restaurants close by or farmland where you can raise your children in the country and let your chickens run loose, I can find it for you! I keep 2 wardrobe changes in my car at all times... heels for those luxury estates & boots for walking with you around 10 acres of land! We have several A+ rated public schools as well as great private schools. We have many great churches in the area as well. If you are a hunter or just enjoy wildlife... well, you have hit the jackpot here, as our area is full of turkey, deer, ducks, and of course even alligators! We have many lakes for all of you boaters or fishermen! Summers are long here, so you will get lots of use out of your boats! Located only 3 hours from the bustling city of Dallas and 5 hours from New Orleans, your weekend getaways are easy last-minute trips!
