Dave's Thoughts On Gratiot Woods Co-op Senior Apartments

As a modern Section 202 property built after 1990, Gratiot Woods Co-op Senior 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.
