Waitlist Information
Waitlist managed by Houston Housing Authority
Waitlists for eight public housing properties are scheduled to open for one week in June. Dates were initially announced as June 15 to 26, though a spokesperson stated these dates are yet to be confirmed with more details expected June 1. Eligible households from the existing Housing Choice Voucher waitlist may be added to public housing waitlists without a lottery.
The waiting list was last open for new applications in September 2016. In 2025, applicants on the existing waitlist had to re-register by June 2, 2025, via the Rent Cafe portal to retain their spot. Preferences included homeless and transition age youth aging out of foster care; selection may be by lottery due to high demand. Income limits generally require household income not to exceed 50% of the area median income (AMI), with 75% of vouchers for those at 30% AMI.
