If my family remains in CONUS while I do an unaccompanied tour, what BAH rate will I draw? Will my family be allowed to remain in housing?

I may be issued orders to an OCONUS unit. For various reasons, I intend to perform the tour unaccompanied (24 months tour length, sea/deployable). If my family remains INCONUS, what BAH rate will I draw? I have been in the MILPERSMAN, but it's pretty vague (or I'm reading it wrong).
Additionally, my family currently lives in base housing, and is very happy with it; assuming that I continue to draw BAH for the CONUS location, will my family be allowed to remain in the current housing arrangement?
Thanks in advance.

So if the Navy is like the Army you should be able to state where you want them to live while you are gone and it should be stated on your orders.

Your will draw the BAH rate for wherever your family is located, whether that is on base or a home of record.

Whether your family is allowed to remain in your current quarters would depend upon the local base directives. Some bases have sufficient quarters available to allow them to remain, others need to limit those in quarters to the dependents of those assigned to that base or resident units.
