Downtown Dayton Apartments for Wright-Patterson AFB Commuters
Work at Wright-Patt, live downtown. Webster Station Flats is a new luxury building at 112 Webster St, across from 2nd Street Market, about a 15-minute drive to Area B and 17 minutes to Area A. You get a straight shot to base in the morning and walkable restaurants, breweries and the Oregon District at night.
How long is the commute from downtown Dayton to Wright-Patt?
From Webster Station Flats, most residents who work in Area B head east on 1st Street. Typical weekday morning drive times:
| Destination | Route | Drive time (weekday 7:30 a.m.) |
|---|---|---|
| Area B, Gate 19B (National Road) | 1st St to US-40 E | ~15 min |
| Area B, Gate 1B (Springfield Street) | 1st St to Springfield St | ~15 min |
| Area A, Gate 12A (AFMC HQ, off OH-444) | SR-4 to OH-444 | ~17 min |
Wright-Patt is split into Area A and Area B, several miles apart. Check which area and gate your work uses before you sign anywhere. Gate hours change, so confirm current hours at wpafb.af.mil. Drive times are estimates and vary with traffic and gate wait times.
Why live downtown instead of Fairborn or Beavercreek?
Fairborn and Beavercreek are closer to Area A, and if the shortest possible drive is your top priority, they are worth a look. Downtown is the choice if you want to walk to dinner, games at Day Air Ballpark, 2nd Street Market and the Oregon District, and still have a reasonable reverse commute. Webster Station Flats also has a coworking lounge for remote and hybrid days.
