Houston Public Housing Waitlist Reopens

Houston’s public housing waitlist is finally opening—first in nearly three years—with applications live June 22 through July 6 for eight properties including Kelly Village and Lincoln Park. You can pick up to three locations, but it’s not first come, first served: after the window closes, a random lottery will decide who gets in, giving everyone equal odds. Two sites—Bellerive and Lyerly—are reserved for seniors 62+. Note: Section 8 is still closed, but existing Section 8 applicants can opt-in via consent form and will be placed based on when they submit—not the lottery. Apply online through RentCafe (set up early to avoid tech issues), or call 713-260-0500 or visit the Housing Alliance HTX office for help.
