Tranferring Bases

If you are Air National Guard then you are signing up for a specific job at a specific unit at a specific location.

If you are Active Duty, there are Air Force bases across the United States and also in other countries such as Japan, Korea, Spain, England, Germany and England. Most jobs in the Air Force can go to lots of Air Force bases. The chances of you going to any particular base is pretty small. Some states have a higher chance than others (Texas, Florida, California, New Mexico, Arizona, and a few others have multiple bases), but overall the chances of getting stationed near home are pretty small. Again, a few jobs are only at a few bases.

Some of this will be out of your control.

The largest answer is "it depends." If you tell us what state you are in, and what kind of jobs you are interested in, we might be able to give you some more detailed info.
