Lakeview Place is an income-based apartment property for seniors at 8950 Hammerly Blvd in Houston, TX. All 78 apartments are subsidized, in studio and 1-bedroom sizes. The rent assistance belongs to the apartment, so you apply to the property itself and you do not need a voucher.
How to apply to Lakeview Place

If you already have a housing voucher
A Housing Choice Voucher pays part of the rent in a privately owned apartment you find yourself. It cannot be used in an apartment that is already subsidized, so the 78 income-based apartments here are not an option for it.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I apply to Lakeview Place?
- Apply to the property, not to the housing authority. Call the office at (713) 984-9003 and ask whether the waiting list is open and how to get an application. Lakeview Place keeps its own waiting list, separate from the Section 8 voucher list. Expect to show ID, Social Security numbers and proof of income for everyone in the household.
- What is the income limit for Lakeview Place?

- How much is rent at Lakeview Place?
- Residents pay about 30% of their adjusted income toward rent and HUD pays the rest to the property. HUD's most recent resident data shows households here paying an average of $353 a month toward rent and utilities. Your own share is calculated from your household's income when you move in and again each year.
- Do I need a Section 8 voucher to live at Lakeview Place?
- No. This is Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly: the assistance is attached to the apartment, not to the tenant, so it is there when you move in and stays behind when you move out. A Housing Choice Voucher cannot be combined with an apartment that already has project-based assistance.
- Is Lakeview Place only for seniors?
- HUD lists it as housing for the elderly. The head of household or their spouse generally has to be 62 or older. Some senior properties also admit younger adults with disabilities; the office can tell you whether this one does.
