St. Brendan Apartments is a senior citizen housing-only residence located in Chicago, Illinois. It consists of 14 studio and 51 one-bedroom units, each of which include a living/dining area, kitchen with appliances, bathroom and closets. Carpeting, blinds and air conditioners are provided. Community space consists of laundry facilities, mailbox lobby, public restrooms, offices, and a community room with a kitchen. St. Brendan Apartments is sponsored by Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Chicago and is financed under the Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly Program of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. It is operated by the Catholic Charities Housing Development Corporation. Property is completely smoke-free as of April 1, 2012, common areas and resident units.
As a modern Section 202 property built after 1990, St. Brendan Apartments only allows seniors aged 62 or older. Older “Legacy” 202 properties (pre-1990) do allow younger persons with disabilities. Modern 202 properties tend to be in better physical condition primarily due to age. Section 202 properties include a rent subsidy, so you will only pay 30% of your income toward rent. To qualify, you will need to earn 50% of the Area Median Income or less. These properties often include a resident services coordinator that arranges services like healthcare management, transportation, and social activities. If you are a senior or have a senior in your household, and need services to maintain independent living, this property may be good for you. Since this property participates in the HUD 202 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.
