Low Rent Program
The Low Rent Program aims to offer cost-effective housing solutions to federally recognized tribal members and families, prioritizing those enrolled with the Peoria and Ottawa Tribes. This income-based program is designed for families and individuals earning within or close to the 80th percentile of the U.S. Median Family Income, with the possibility of applying various deductions. Don’t let being slightly above this threshold deter you from applying.
For application forms or assistance, visit or call the Peoria Housing Authority. Please note, only complete applications will be considered.

Eligibility Guidelines
Eligibility for this program requires that your household income does not surpass HUD Income Guidelines. The amount of funding you can receive from the PHA DPA Grant varies based on your income, with a maximum of 20% of the home’s purchase price or up to $18,000. Those above the low-income threshold can still apply but may receive a reduced amount, limited to one application per year.
