text: apartments based on income?   yes every town and every state has low income housing.  first there are the apartments that bas your rent on your income.  they take 10% of your income and that is what your rent is.  but you can only make sooo much money to qualify for it.  then there is section 8 and that is where you find your own house, and the landlord has to agree to accept rent payment from the state u r in.  alot of landlords like this cuz they r guaranteed to get their rent on time every month but alot do not like it because the house you pick has to have an inspection- all windows have to have locks and 2 exits- back and front door.  things like that.  for section 8 they put your name on a list and u have to wait for your name to come up.
