FAQ and Contact Information

How do I know if I am income eligible for units?

Elligibility is based on your household size (number of people) and income. Income includes all household members over the age of 18. The maximum income to be elligible is based on the Area Median Income (AMI). Units will specify what proportion of the AMI is accepted (60%). Check available units for each property (Beekman and City Club pages) for income requirements.
