Fair Shot Housing

Area-wide waitlists

Iowa Section 8 and public housing waitlists

Iowa has 2 open area-wide waitlists on Fair Shot Housing right now: 1 for Section 8 vouchers and 1 for public housing. One waitlist for a whole city or county, run by a local housing office. It is not for one building.

None of these housing offices posts an income limit we can check, so each row says to check the rules.

Places with more than one list have their own page: Mason City.

What to check before you apply

Check the housing office’s own website for lists we haven’t added. This is not every waitlist in Iowa. It holds the lists we found on housing offices’ own websites that were open when we last checked (Oct 8). Lists that are closed are not shown, and the housing office decides who qualifies and when a list opens. For one particular building, search the homes in Iowa.
