One spouse or one spouse and 3 kids or even just 10 kids all would grant the active-duty member the same BAH w/dependent rate. Being married also qualifies the military member for military housing vs. living in the barracks.

I know a woman who's daughter married a military guy (early 20's) simply because she needed the health insurance and he wanted the extra pay.......
That then became the joke of the night that one of the other girls in our group needed to go down to Southern CA and find a military guy.
