Located Downtown, Orange Grove Homes is a Homeownership Catalyst Community and one of four communities that make up the Renaissance Corridor. This recently renovated community has 1, 2 and 3 bedroom two story apartments. Residents in this community have access to public transportation, convenient parking, a charming management/community room building, an intergenerational community garden, basketball courts and great walking areas. Residents also participate in a W.E.A.L.T.H. Program which is designed to help families achieve economic and life-style independence.
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 Orange Grove Homes 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.
