Screening practices and applicable requirements can vary by property and location. Ask each housing provider about its current criteria and verify reported policy details directly. For questions about your rights, consider consulting a qualified local housing or legal resource. Approval is never guaranteed.
Richmond renters can consult the Housing Authority of Richmond, Kentucky (RHA) for official local housing information. Its site has admission guidance and pages about its housing communities; those pages do not confirm a current opening.
RHA describes its Richmond housing communities, but the property pages are not a live vacancy list. Contact RHA to confirm which programs or properties are taking applications, current eligibility rules, and whether a unit is available.
This page does not verify RHA's current screening rules or predict an outcome. Request the current written eligibility and screening criteria from RHA and ask how they apply to your particular circumstances.
Review RHA's official admission criteria and community pages. Ask whether the relevant program or property is accepting applications, what documents are required, and how to apply and check your status through the authority's official channels.

General FAQ: https://harichmondky.com/about/faq/ — says a criminal record does not automatically disqualify but some violent/drug convictions can be harder, and states sex offenders will not qualify.

RHA’s FAQ says tenant rent depends on income and deductions, and states a one-pet-under-30-lbs rule with vaccinations, a $200 pet deposit and $10/month fee; verify unit/program-specific rules, especially Dillingham’s separate Section 8 portion.
