The Air Force Enlisted Village (AFEV) is a 501c3 nonprofit organization whose core mission is to provide a safe, secure home for surviving spouses of retired enlisted U.S. Airmen. Located along the beautiful Emerald Coast of northwest Florida in Shalimar near Eglin Air Force Base and Hurlburt Field, apartments are available at Bob Hope Village, our independent living community, and at Hawthorn House, our assisted living and memory support residence.
The Air Force Enlisted Village (AFEV) provides life-long support for our residents. Bob Hope Villages 1-6 consist of independent living apartments and Hawthorn House provides an assisted living with memory support option. Residents here share memories of military life, build lasting friendships, and live comfortably in a community with their pride and independence intact.
Although the Air Force Enlisted Village has expanded to provide a home for members of our military family, surviving spouses of retired enlisted U.S. Airmen continue to be the focus of our nonprofit mission.
