1 bedroom Section 8 apartments in Klondike, Memphis
A Section 8 voucher will cover up to $940/mo for a 1 bedroom unit in ZIP 38108 — the current Small-Area FMR for the Klondike area.
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.
