Words used in this report

Area median income (AMI)The middle income for the area, adjusted for household size. A lottery apartment "at 60% AMI" is for households earning up to about 60% of it. The agency's income chart turns each level into dollar limits.
Lottery (NYC Housing Connect)Every complete application gets a random log number. The marketing agent works through applications in log-number order within each preference group, so applying early does not help.
Minimum incomeThe lowest yearly income the listing accepts for an apartment, so the rent is not too large a share of income. Housing Connect does not apply it to households with a voucher or rental subsidy.
Marketing agentThe company the building hires to run its lottery and check applicants' papers.
Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8)Rental help run by a housing authority. You find a home, and the agency checks the unit, rent and your household before it approves payment.
CityFHEPS (New York City)The City Fighting Homelessness and Eviction Prevention Supplement: a City-funded rent supplement that the Department of Social Services (DSS) pays straight to the landlord.
Payment standard (the CityFHEPS maximum in this report)An amount the agency uses to work out housing assistance for a unit size and area. It does not mean that any home at that rent will be approved.
Utility allowanceThe agency's estimate of the cost of utilities you must pay. It is not a promise to pay your actual bills.
FMR and SAFMRHUD rent estimates for an area (Fair Market Rent) or ZIP code (Small Area Fair Market Rent). They include rent and most tenant-paid utilities. Your agency may use a different payment standard.
Certificate of occupancyThe Department of Buildings' sign-off that a building, or part of it, can be lived in.

Which Rents a CityFHEPS or Section 8 Voucher Reaches

All three rents are under the 2026 CityFHEPS maximum for their size. They stay under it after the utility allowances for electric cooking and electric heat are taken off.

This was a city lottery on NYC Housing Connect, and the listing names HPD as its agency. The Housing Connect FAQ says: "Minimum income requirements do not apply if you have a voucher or a rental subsidy. However, rent should be within maximum limits allowed by your voucher or rental assistance program."

Source: rents from the Housing Connect listing; maximums from DSS-8r, effective April 1, 2026, which gives them "if all utilities are included in the lease"; the last column is VoucherMatch's arithmetic, taking off the DSS-8r "Electric with Cooking Range" and "Electric Heat Only" allowances.

Key pointthe listing says "Tenant is responsible for electric including stove and heat. Hot water is included with the rent." So this report took off two DSS-8r allowances: "Electric with Cooking Range" ($111, $126 and $167) and "Electric Heat Only" ($52, $62 and $82) for a studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom.

How far under each limit, by apartment

Two-bedroom, $2,583$414 under, and $165 after allowances.
Credit checkthe FAQ says "Applicants qualifying with rental subsidy are not subject to a credit check or review of rental history."

What it means: DSS decides the amount for a household. Ask your caseworker before you sign anything.

Does 1801 Weeks Avenue take Section 8 or CityFHEPS?

Housing Connect accepts both, and every rent here is under the 2026 CityFHEPS maximum for its size. After allowances for electric cooking and heat, the two-bedroom is $165 under and the studio $401 under. DSS and the housing authority decide the final amount, so ask them before you apply anywhere.

Is 1801 Weeks Avenue in Mount Hope or Tremont?

It is in Mount Hope. The listing, the Department of Buildings, City Planning's address search and two news reports all say Mount Hope. The nearest stations are named Tremont Av and 174-175 Sts. VoucherMatch's own apartment pages file ZIP code 10457 under Tremont, so check both names when searching.

Yes, below HUD's figures, but only a little for the two-bedroom. HUD's fiscal year 2027 figures for ZIP code 10457 are $2,280, $2,390 and $2,620 for a studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom. The lottery rents are $240, $217 and $37 under. HUD's figures include most utilities; these rents do not include electricity.
