Paterson Court is located next door to Alabama State University and only a few blocks from downtown Montgomery. This conveniently located community, with easy access to Interstates 65 and 85, offers 200 total units of studio, one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments.
This property is funded through HUD’s Public Housing program. These properties are typically owned and managed by a Public Housing Authority. These properties tend to be much older, as no new public housing has been built in many years. Since the Federal budget has historically (and notoriously) underfunded public housing renovations for decades, these properties tend to have higher vacancies due to uninhabitable units or liveable units that are in poor condition. In addition, since all public housing properties offer rent subsidies, low-income residents only pay rent based on their incomes. For that reason, these properties tend to have longer waiting lists. Check our public housing waiting list data for more information. Since Paterson Court participates in the Public Housing program and has a property based subsidy, if you have a Section 8 voucher, you would have to give up your voucher to move in.

Even if it looks difficult to get housing, apply anyway.
