Background

NYC affordable housing lotteries are run through the Housing Connect website. Applicants generally submit one application per household, and applications are selected at random. Selected applicants must then document their household size and income, which must fall within the listed minimum and maximum for the unit. Many lotteries set aside a share of units for certain groups, such as residents of the local community district or people with disabilities. Rules for each lottery are spelled out in the official listing.
