Local housing information for Conway

Local rental overview

Three Conway Housing Authority communities have source-supported street addresses and are included as unverified research listings: Oakwood Place Apartments (62 efficiency/one-bedroom public-housing units), East Oakwood Place (50 one-/two-bedroom USDA/LIHTC/HUD-assisted units), and The Village of the Seven Mornings (51 one-/two-bedroom senior/disabled units). Family Site is a city resource only: CHA describes 91 one- to four-bedroom duplex units across the area between Baridon and Davis Streets and South Erbach, without one complex address or a dedicated photo. Do not substitute CHA office addresses. No current vacancy, waitlist status, or property-level criminal-record acceptance is established.

Application tips

Use CHA's official pages (https://conwayhousingauthority.org/public-housing, https://conwayhousingauthority.org/east-oakwood, and https://conwayhousingauthority.org/the-village) and contact CHA at 501-327-0156 to confirm application instructions, current waitlist status, availability, eligibility, and criminal-record screening. Public-housing waiting-list wording is limited to the Family Site and Oakwood options; it does not establish general felony acceptance and does not apply by inference to East Oakwood or The Village. The purported East Oakwood PDF link was reported to return image/jpeg. Village rent/deposit figures are undated source-listed amounts, not current prices. Do not treat office addresses as residential property addresses.

CONWAY HOUSING AUTHORITY (CHA) Official website: https://conwayhousingauthority.org/ Public housing: https://conwayhousingauthority.org/public-housing East Oakwood: https://conwayhousingauthority.org/east-oakwood The Village of the Seven Mornings: https://conwayhousingauthority.org/the-village Community locations and property photos: https://conwayhousingauthority.org/get-in-touch CHA lists phone 501-327-0156; extensions on the public-housing page include Family Site 107, Oakwood 110, East Oakwood 120, and Village 116. Confirm current contact and application details directly with CHA. ADDRESS-SUPPORTED PROPERTY LISTINGS Oakwood Place Apartments — 1701 Hairston St., Conway, AR 72034; CHA describes 62 efficiency and one-bedroom units in a three-story public-housing community for elderly and disabled people. East Oakwood Place — 1651 Hairston St., Conway, AR 72034; CHA describes 50 one- and two-bedroom units, USDA-sponsored, partly LIHTC-financed, with HUD-assisted rental subsidies. The page labels a link “Application (pdf),” but the target https://img1.wsimg.com/isteam/getty/2221899261?ver=1789674834277 was reported to respond as image/jpeg; do not rely on it as a working application PDF. The Village of the Seven Mornings — 1400 Harkrider St., Conway, AR 72032; CHA describes 51 one- and two-bedroom apartments for senior and disabled people. Its page lists one-bedroom rent/deposit of $583/$200 and two-bedroom rent/deposit of $610/$250 without an effective date. These are historical/source-listed amounts only, not a current rent quote or availability statement. FAMILY SITE — CITY RESOURCE ONLY, NOT A PINPOINT LISTING CHA describes the Family Site as 91 duplex-style units with one to four bedrooms located between Baridon and Davis Streets, as well as apartments on South Erbach. The source does not provide one community street address or a dedicated Family Site property photo. CHA's main office at 335 South Mitchell St. and Section 8 office at 1875 Lucille St. are offices, not Family Site residential addresses. PUBLIC-HOUSING SCREENING SCOPE CHA's public-housing waiting-list section says applicants age 18 or older may apply except convicted sex offenders and individuals with methamphetamine-related criminal charges; it also lists a full-time-student restriction for applicants without children, disability, or veteran status. This is source-reported program-level information limited to the Family Site and Oakwood public-housing options. It does not establish a general felony rule, an individual screening outcome, or current eligibility. Do not apply this public-housing-page statement to East Oakwood or The Village. It is not a blanket felony-acceptance statement or a determination for any applicant. AVAILABILITY AND APPLICATIONS The reviewed materials do not establish current vacancy, a current waiting-list status, or acceptance of applicants based on felony or other criminal history. Contact CHA to confirm application instructions, screening, eligibility, and availability.
