People Also Ask

How do I apply for low-income housing in Missouri?

Search a Missouri ZIP or city, open a building, and call the number. Public housing applications go to the housing authority. Project-based Section 8 and tax-credit apartments take applications at the building or its manager. Voucher waitlists are separate.

What is the income limit for affordable housing in Missouri?

HUD sets income limits by metro or county, not one number for all of Missouri. Open a ZIP page for the current 30% / 50% / 80% table for that area. Limits change each fiscal year.

How long is the Section 8 waiting list in Missouri?

Missouri has many housing authorities, each with its own voucher and public housing lists. Some stay closed for years. This site does not publish a statewide wait time. Call the authority that serves your city, or start from a ZIP page.

Can I use Section 8 in any MO city?

A Housing Choice Voucher is often portable after you lease up, but you still apply with a housing authority that has an open list. Project-based Section 8 stays with a specific building. Use this directory to find those buildings by city or ZIP.
