Section 8 apartments in Fox Meadows, Memphis
Fox Meadows is in the East area, primarily within ZIP code 38115. Memphis is a mandatory Small-Area Fair Market Rent metro, so the Housing Choice Voucher payment standards below are specific to this ZIP.
No source-of-income protection in effect
Memphis has a Fair Housing Ordinance that lists source of income as a protected class, BUT the ordinance has NO private right of action — only the City of Memphis Office of Fair Housing can enforce it, individual voucher-holders cannot sue. NAACP LDF's 2024 "Bad Housing Blues" report documents widespread ongoing SOI discrimination in Memphis despite the ordinance. Legal recourse for voucher-holders here is effectively minimal.
