They still have a lot of Navy people living there. Plus there are some ballfields that some schools use for football and other sports.
The base is huge and is comprised of land from 3 towns. The Navy sold it back to the towns for a dollar about 8 years ago. It is "slowly" being developed for mixed use ... houses, business, golf course, parks, bio-tech business center and maybe a film studio. Lots of squabbling between the 3 towns, but things are progressing.
I wish I could get on the runways. Some are 2 miles long. All kinds of fencing to keep everyone off the runways.
Here is a pic I took last year inside the base.
