Area-wide waitlists
Dallas, TX: Section 8 and public housing waitlists
Dallas, Texas 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.
