Affordable Housing Information
What is Affordable Housing?
This community participates in an Affordable Housing program, which helps ensure rental rates remain accessible to individuals and families with low to moderate incomes. Under this program, rents are capped based on a percentage of the area median income, allowing qualifying households to secure stable housing without sacrificing other essential expenses. Affordable housing can be made available through government subsidies, nonprofit initiatives, and cost-effective housing development. While this is not a project-based Section 8 community—where rent is determined by household income—housing vouchers are accepted as long as they cover the required rental rates.

Our Process
Moving into a home that participates in an affordable housing program is an exciting opportunity; however, it requires following a few important steps to ensure eligibility and a smooth transition. We encourage you to review all the necessary steps outlined below to guide you through the process and make your move as seamless as possible. Click through to learn more and get started on your journey to your new home!
Step 1: Review Eligibility
Prior to submitting an application, review the eligibility parameters for the Affordable Housing program, as minimum and maximum household income restrictions apply. The rent amount will stay the same for a minimum of one year. Rent is not based on household income; however, Section 8 vouchers or other third-party subsidies are accepted provided they meet or exceed the established rental rates.
Minimum Household Income: Two times (2x) the rent.
Maximum Household Income: Gross (pre-tax) income must be below the amounts listed on the following table based on household size.
