Local housing resources
Southwestern Idaho Cooperative Housing Authority (SICHA) https://sicha.org/Public/HousingAuthorityRentals/, reviewed 2026-09-28: 1 of its 18 named regional projects are in Cascade (Housing Southwest #4 (Cascade Senior Housing), 12 units). The authority's https://sicha.org/Resources/Docs/SICHAProjects.pdf sheet lists the individual subsidy type, bedroom mix, floor area, street or scattered-site location and contact. Across all 18 entries in the sheet, the stated counts add to 238 units; this is a calculated subtotal, not proof that any unit is available. SICHA says it is accepting applications for all 18 projects on its rental page. The appropriate SICHA-owned rural-development senior / disabled housing application is linked in each listing. General office: (208) 585-9325, SICHA, 377 Cornell Street, Middleton, ID 83644 (mailing/application office, not a dwelling). Its page also says completed regional-project applications may be emailed to affordable_ph_waitlist@sicha.org. Online portals are linked where the authority publishes them; ask SICHA which submission method applies to your chosen property. Applying to a waitlist is not a current apartment vacancy. Screening is unverified: the authority's application materials authorize checks involving criminal activity, but these materials do not establish acceptance of any particular felony history. Senior/disabled rural-development housing has a linked age 62+ or disability/over-18 application; the managed Housing Southwest #2 is a separate Payette Section 8/202 disability property. Public-housing applications for Cinnabar and Syringa are not applications for the tenant-based https://sicha.org/Public/Section8Vouchers/WaitingList.htm voucher program. Ask SICHA to confirm property-specific eligibility, screening and availability before relying on a listing.
