The term “affordable housing” refers to housing, whether for rent, shared ownership or outright purchase, provided at a cost considered affordable in relation to incomes that are lower than what is needed to access housing on the open market.  This housing may also be provided to those with age or physical limitations.  This type of housing may be subsidized and administered by public or private sector agencies and organizations.

How do I know if I qualify for affordable housing?
Eligibility for affordable housing is based on comparing your income to median income in Westchester and factoring in the size of your houseold.  Consult the Westchester County Area Median Income (AMI) & Rent Limits Program Guidelines for more information.
