Am I eligible?

Eligibility requirements for the apartments at The Palm View are based on a professional history in the arts, a diagnosis of a permanent disability (applicants must be receiving disability benefits), and annual income criteria established by the federal government. A small number of units are available to non-arts professionals. Household size for a one-bedroom apartment is 1–2 people, and occupancy for a two-bedroom apartment is 2–4 people.

To qualify for a one-bedroom unit at The Palm View, residents’ annual income must be no greater than *$24,840 (for one person) or *$28,380 (for two people). The maximum incomes for two-bedroom units are *$47,300 (for 2 people), *$53,200 (for 3 people) and *$59,100 (for 4 people). *These limits are subject to change annually based on federal guidelines.

All residents of one-bedroom apartments, as well as one of the two-bedroom apartments, are eligible to apply to participate in the project-based voucher contract with the Los Angeles County Development Authority. Applicants may request an accessible unit by checking the appropriate box on the application or by making a verbal request to staff during the screening process if called for an interview.
