The HASA maximum in Concourse is the citywide one: $2,646 for a studio up to $4,111 for four bedrooms when the rent includes every utility. The guideline from the Human Resources Administration (HRA) has no borough or ZIP code column, and it has not changed in 2026.

| Unit size (household size) | Maximum, all utilities included | Estimate if you pay cooking gas and electric |
|---|---|---|
| Studio (1 person) | $2,646 | $2,524 |
| 1 bedroom (1 or 2 people) | $2,762 | $2,624 |
| 2 bedrooms (3 or 4 people) | $3,058 | $2,881 |
| 3 bedrooms (5 or 6 people) | $3,811 | $3,596 |
| 4 bedrooms (7 or 8 people) | $4,111 | $3,857 |
What it means: a three-bedroom where you pay gas and electric needs to rent for about $3,596 or less.

Key pointAn owner who quotes $3,753 for three bedrooms is reading the CityFHEPS sheet, which was lowered on April 1, 2026. HASA still uses the table above. HRA says the guidelines "are not a guarantee" of a bedroom size. The 30% rule is in how much HASA pays for rent.

The Neighborhood: Concourse in Practice
Concourse is the part of the west Bronx built along the Grand Concourse, and the City groups it with Highbridge and Mount Eden. VoucherMatch's Concourse page covers roughly ZIP code 10452, which the site's data shares with Highbridge. The City's Bronx Community District 4 takes in Concourse, Concourse Village, East Concourse, Highbridge and Mount Eden.
- Apartment housesthe Grand Concourse Historic District holds 78 properties on a one-mile stretch between East 153rd and 167th Streets, 61 of them apartment houses built between 1917 and 1959.
- Vacancy1.6% of rental units in Highbridge/Concourse were vacant in 2024, down from 3.4% in 2010.
- Typical renta median of $1,370 for studios and one-bedrooms in 2024, in 2025 dollars, and $1,710 for recent movers of all sizes.

How to Make a HASA Offer in Concourse
Get three figures from your caseworker before you call an owner, because HASA approves one apartment, one rent and one lease at a time. It has no shopping letter: HRA says HASA rental assistance "is not CityFHEPS or voucher programs."
- 1Ask your caseworker for three figuresyour approved bedroom size, the maximum rent for the utilities you would pay, and your monthly share.
- 2Do your own searchHRA says clients find their own apartments. A caseworker can give a list of brokers, with no promise of vacancies.
- 3Read the lease termsheat and hot water should be in the lease, and the rent has to fit your maximum.
- 4Talk to your caseworker before you commitHRA tells clients not to give up a current apartment first.
- 5Caseworker inspectionrequired even when another agency has already inspected. HRA publishes no checklist.
- 6Approval and paymentthe owner is paid by check twice a month, and you pay your share if you have one.
What it means: HRA gives no time for approval or the first check. Broker rules are in HASA broker requirements.
- Your maximum rent, in writing from your caseworker
- A copy of SPSVC-17 showing "effective 9/10/2025"
- A question for the owner: which of heat, hot water, cooking gas and electric are in the rent?
- Your caseworker's name and phone number
Key pointTurning a tenant away because HASA pays the rent is source-of-income discrimination under the NYC Human Rights Law, which exempts small owner-occupied buildings and units not publicly advertised (NYC Commission on Human Rights). The law does not promise that any one owner says yes. See how to report a landlord who refuses your voucher.
When to Expand Your Search
Search the neighbors alongside Concourse: the HASA maximum is identical citywide, so a wider search costs nothing in rent. Five nearby neighborhoods have HASA pages.
| Neighborhood | HASA listings | Connection in the MTA pages read |
|---|---|---|

| Morrisania | Morrisania | Bx35 bus east along E 167 St to 3 Av |
| South Bronx | South Bronx | 4 train to 149 St-Hostos |
| Mott Haven | Mott Haven | Bx1 and Bx2 buses down the Grand Concourse |
| Fordham | Fordham | 4 or D train to Fordham Rd |
What it means: each page shows its own live listings, and nothing here ranks one above another.

Mount Eden and Melrose have no HASA page of their own; HASA apartments across the Bronx covers them. There are HASA guides to the South Bronx and Morrisania. For another subsidy in Concourse, read the CityFHEPS, FHEPS and Section 8 guides.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the HASA rent cap for a three-bedroom in Concourse in 2026?
$3,811 a month with all utilities included, for a household of five or six. That is the HASA voucher amount for 2026 on the Grand Concourse and citywide. How much HASA pays for rent in 2026, studio to four bedrooms: $2,646, $2,762, $3,058, $3,811 and $4,111, less a 30% share if you have income.
Does HASA work the same way as Section 8 or CityFHEPS?
No. HRA says HASA rental assistance "is not CityFHEPS or voucher programs." HASA approves a specific apartment, rent and lease through your caseworker and has no shopping letter.
Why are there so few HASA listings in Concourse right now?
No source VoucherMatch read explains the count on a given day, and it may not be low: the live figure is 2. What is on record is that 1.6% of the area's rental units were vacant in 2024.
Can a landlord charge more than the HASA cap if I pay the difference?
HRA publishes no way for a client to pay the gap, and a rent above your maximum is generally not approvable. Ask your caseworker before you sign anything.
What subway lines serve Concourse?
The 4, B and D. All three stop at 161 St-Yankee Stadium, 167 St and 170 St, and the B runs in rush hours only. Metro-North's Hudson Line stops at Yankees-E 153 St.
