Residence at Roosevelt Park is Middlesex County's highly anticipated affordable senior (62+) housing development. It consists of 84 one- and two-bedroom units, ranging from 659 square fee to 1,034 square feet. Units are affordable at a variety of income tiers and ADA units are available to those with mobility challenges.
Each unit features a combined living and dining area and fully equipped kitchen. Bright, airy common rooms on each floor welcome residents and their visitors to gather for entertainment and conversation.
Residence at Roosevelt Park is situated on a hillside overlooking Middlesex County’s breathtaking Roosevelt Park, which offers beautiful walking and jogging paths, picnic groves, an ice skating rink and the iconic Plays-in-the-Park summer theater series.
This LIHTC property is among the most common types of affordable rental housing in the United States. The LIHTC program only provides subsidies to the building’s owner at construction. No subsidies are provided directly to the residents, but the owner must set rents affordable to low-income renters in the area. Our data suggests Residence at Roosevelt Park does not participate in any project-based rent subsidy program. This means you must earn enough to pay the full rent or have your own Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher. For that reason, LIHTC properties tend to have shorter waiting lists or even none at all. LIHTC properties nationwide are required to accept housing vouchers. LIHTC properties were first built in the late 1980's. Because they tend to be newer, these properties are more likely to have larger units, more amenities, and greater tenant service offerings than other affordable housing programs. This property might be right for you if you have a housing voucher or enough income to pay rent, are looking for a high quality property, or need immediate availability. Since this property participates in the LIHTC program, the property is required to accept Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers. As a LIHTC property that chose the 40/60 election, this property has agreed to set aside at least 40% of its units for families and individuals earning 60% of Area Median Income (AMI). Many properties have actually set aside more units than required by law, and in many cases all of the units at these properties are affordable to renters with lower incomes. Since this property participates in the LIHTC program, the property is required to accept Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers.

Housing options for renters with a criminal record.
A criminal history does not automatically disqualify a renter from federal housing assistance. But more serious offenses may make you inelligible if they were recent.Theodore Taylor Jr. says:
