Latest Lists

Does anyone know of any cities that have short waiting lists for Section 8?

I am trying to relocate and am wondering if anyone knows of any cities that have short waiting lists for Section 8? I know of one in Texas that the waiting list is only 4-6 weeks but I was wondering if anyone knew of any others. Thanks

1. 4-6 weeks.. hell take that.. i hear that here it's 3+ years your best bet will be a smaller city/county
2. Rogers and Bentonville AR waiting list is about 4-8 weeks. but then, next to Walmart central base, good jobs and good pay too.
3. yeah its called making more money so you get on a better line- the line of choice. too many people looking for section 8's. I advise you guys to get a better job or get a better education. section 8 housing is tiny and dirty. another thing I like to add is crime around the area is quite higher than nicer places.
4. You're willing to move to where ever you chances at public assistance are better? There's something wrong with this picture!! How can you afford to move? And what makes you think you'll be eligible in a new location?
5. Have you asked your local Housing Authority (or whichever government agency handles the Section 8 in your area)? Perhaps one of the employees there will know.
