HUD records identify this as an affordable or assisted housing property. Current vacancies, eligibility and voucher policies must be confirmed directly with property management.
How to apply
- Contact the authority directly using the phone number or website above. Applications are always free — if any site asks you to pay to apply for Section 8, do not pay.
- Ask whether the waiting list is open. This is the single question no dataset can answer for you.
- Check the income limits for the county you live in. Income is one factor, not the whole test.
- Ask about local preferences — many authorities prioritise applicants who live or work in the area, veterans, people with disabilities, or households experiencing homelessness.
- Ask for the landlord list. Most authorities keep a list of owners who have accepted vouchers before, and it is rarely published online.
Waiting lists
No HUD dataset publishes waiting-list status. Whether a list is open, closed, or opening on a particular date is announced by the authority itself and changes without notice. Check the authority’s own website or call the number above. Treat any third-party claim about an open waiting list — including an out-of-date page on this site — as something to verify, not something to rely on.

These are federal administrative datasets. They record which properties receive a subsidy and which organisations administer which programs. They do not record vacancies, waiting-list status, or whether a landlord will accept a Housing Choice Voucher. Those things change constantly and can only be confirmed by contacting the housing authority or the property directly.
Important
Section8Finder is an independent information resource. We do not administer vouchers, we do not accept or process applications, and we cannot place anyone in housing. Applying through a housing authority is free — if any site asks you to pay to apply for Section 8, do not pay.
Income limits and Fair Market Rents are set by HUD and are revised at least annually. Eligibility is determined by the administering housing authority, which applies rules beyond income alone, including deductions, assets, household composition, citizenship or eligible immigration status, screening criteria and local preferences.
