For military families stationed in Colorado Springs, financial considerations are a crucial part of planning your next move. One key benefit that may impact your budget is the CONUS Cost of Living Allowance (COLA). This allowance helps offset higher living expenses in designated high-cost areas, making your time here more manageable.
CONUS COLA is a non-taxable allowance provided to service members stationed within the continental United States (CONUS). It's designed to help military families maintain their purchasing power in areas where the cost of living exceeds the national average. This allowance can cover essentials like groceries, utilities, and transportation, allowing your paycheck to stretch further.
Eligibility depends on several factors, including:
If you're stationed in Colorado Springs or considering a move here, it's worth checking if your location qualifies for CONUS COLA benefits.
The amount varies based on location, rank, and family size. It’s recalculated annually, so staying informed about updates is key.
