US overseas bases vary sharply from suburban-style complexes to utilitarian single-soldier campuses

Evidence

Designed as a “walking base,” rather than a sprawling Little America where frequent driving is required to get from one building on base to another, the installation was quiet and had little vehicle traffic in the middle of the workday. (The cars in the nearly full parking garages belonged to people commuting to work on the base.) According to the Army, Dal Molin was the first base campus to receive LEED Green Building certification. … Unlike many U.S. bases, which resemble extravagant imitations of suburbia abroad, Dal Molin is quite utilitarian. There will be no families living on this base—just single soldiers. — David Vine, Base Nation_ How U.S. Military Bases…, 757
