RHA Scattered Sites: housing details

Family and individual public housing · citywide group. RHA currently labels its general Low-Income Public Housing (LIPH) waiting list open and its Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) waiting list closed. An open program list is not a vacancy or proof this specific property is taking applications. No reviewed source establishes conviction-specific approval.

Residential location

  • Scattered Sites East and Scattered Sites West, divided by the Rock River; individual residential addresses are not published on the authority's housing page.

Do not use RHA's main-office address, another development's address or a representative photograph as a location for these homes. Ask the authority how new applicants are considered for scattered sites; the reviewed page does not give individual addresses or available units.

Buildings and homes

291 single-family or duplex units across both sides of Rockford combined; this is an inventory, not vacancies or 291 homes per side.

These homes blend into neighborhoods throughout Rockford. RHA says scattered-site residents take on greater responsibility for lawn care, snow removal and home upkeep. Transfers from another development have additional good-tenancy requirements; current residents are directed to their site manager.

Contact and application

RHA lists 815-489-8730 for this property or group. Ask about its current location, unit availability, accessibility and written admission criteria before relying on these directory details.
