Local housing information for Peoria

Local rental overview

HAMC's 2025 Tenant Selection Plan classifies the three named communities as PBRA. John Hammond's current operator page shows 8500 W. Washington Street, whereas the plan prints 500 W. Washington Street. Parkview's page shows 10950 N. 86th Lane, while the plan says 10950 N. 87th Avenue. Varney's page gives an 80th/82nd Drives area reference, while the plan lists 11503 N. 82nd Drive. Do not treat these competing references or the HAMC office at 8910 N. 78th Avenue as every unit's confirmed street address.

Criminal screening overview

The linked 2025 Tenant Selection Plan includes criminal-history screening and denial criteria for covered PBRA properties; none of the three listings establishes conviction-specific approval. Obtain current written criteria from HAMC before paying an application fee.

Application tips

Ask each manager to confirm the precise residential address, current waitlist, rent and income limits, and whether its latest criteria differ from the 2025 plan. HAMC's general line is 602-744-4500. A floor-plan 'Add to waitlist' control is not a current vacancy.

How we verify this information

Reported screening policies come from properties, management companies, and renter-submitted experiences, and each record shows when it was last verified. Policies can change at any time—always confirm directly with the property.
