Income-based senior apartments — HUD Section 202 and Low-Income Housing Tax Credit properties — can cut housing costs dramatically for independent older adults. The catch is availability: waitlists are common and can run months to years, so applying early (often at several properties at once) is the difference-maker. These are housing, not care, so any needed help is arranged separately through home care.
