Since this property may have a Section 8 Property Based Rental Assistance contract with rental assistance available to its residents, it is likely the property has a waiting list. Sometimes these waiting lists can be months or years long and may or may not be accepting new applicants. You should contact the property to verify.
Note: Affordable Housing Online has not confirmed the waiting list status directly with the property. This waiting list status forecast is based on our housing experts' knowledge of similar properties. You should always confirm this status directly with the property.
Cambridge Apartment Corporation is a high-rise, 91 unit senior housing community located on Milwaukee’s East Side.
Cambridge provides senior citizens with a wide variety of programs and activities ranging from computer training and adult education, a monthly medical clinic, monthly birthday celebrations, and resident planned social gatherings.
The fifteenth floor penthouse offers a panoramic view of beautiful Lake Michigan, downtown Milwaukee, fireworks displays, and seasonal changes. The penthouse also provides an air-conditioned TV viewing area and a family and social gathering place.
A Neighborhood Networks computer lab provides these seniors with the latest in technology. Weekly computer training provides the residents with the skills for research, book writing, and communication with family and friends.
Since Cambridge Apartments participates in the Section 8 Project-Based Rental Assistance program, your rent would be subsidized. You would not pay more than 30% of your income for rent. To qualify, you must earn 50% or less of the Area Median Income (AMI), which you can find on this page’s income chart. Also, project-based Section 8 properties tend to have longer waiting lists, with some with waiting lists going out for years. Since this property participates in the Section 8 Project Based Rental Assistance 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.
