730 Byberry Rd, Philadelphia, PA 19116
Fop Senior Citizen Inc is an income-based apartment property for seniors at 730 Byberry Rd in Philadelphia, PA. All 52 apartments are subsidized, in studio sizes. The rent assistance belongs to the apartment, so you apply to the property itself and you do not need a voucher.

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 52 income-based apartments here are not an option for it. Browse landlords in Philadelphia who accept vouchers or see Section 8 rent limits and housing authorities in Philadelphia County.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I apply to Fop Senior Citizen Inc?

- Most admissions to project-based Section 8 are for very low income households (50% of area median or less). Limited admissions above that level may be allowed within the low income limit.

- How much is rent at Fop Senior Citizen Inc?
- Residents pay about 30% of their adjusted income toward rent and a HUD contract with the property covers the rest. HUD's resident data records an average payment of $396 a month toward rent and utilities. This historical average is not a current rent quote. 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 Fop Senior Citizen Inc?
- No. This is Project-based Section 8: 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 Fop Senior Citizen Inc only for seniors?
- HUD lists it as housing for the elderly. HUD identifies this as senior housing. The age rule and which household member must meet it depend on the property’s program. Ask for the tenant selection plan; a senior label alone does not establish eligibility or care services.
