Local housing information for Kenner

Local rental overview

HUD Housing Network, an independent third-party aggregator (not HUD or the Housing Authority of the City of Kenner), returned 6 affordable-complex cards, 4 initial-page retirement cards, and 2 additional page-2 nursing-home cards across its fetched batches as reviewed 2026-09-25; page 3 was checked and was empty. The two nursing-home cards are not rental listings. None of these cards has an independently usable named rental address or property phone in the reviewed material; linked detail contact/location fields are registration-gated. No apartment listings are created from these cards. The aggregator's $0–$0/month display is a placeholder, not a rent quote.

KHA's home page stated HCV and PBV waitlists were closed as reviewed 2026-09-25; this does not establish the Public Housing waitlist status.

No claim is made that any named property accepts applicants with criminal records.

The page-2 nursing-home cards are not rentals and their names duplicate two initial-page retirement card names as separate category entries. The directory's cards disclose no independently usable named rental addresses or property phone numbers. Linked detail pages gate phone, street address, location, email, and website behind registration. These names are third-party directory leads only, except for the separately corroborated Westminster Tower Senior Apartments property below. Kenner Housing Authority ownership, vacancy, rent, and criminal-record screening acceptance are not asserted for any of these cards. Only Westminster Tower is published as an unverified apartment record; the other five remain city resources. The page displays “$0 - $0*/month”; this is a placeholder, not actual rent. Its card phrase “units available” is not a current vacancy, bed-capacity, or inventory conclusion. PAGE-REPORTED AGGREGATES — NOT VERIFIED VACANCIES OR RENTAL INVENTORY As of 2026-09-30, the aggregator claims 6 affordable complexes, 346 Section 8 apartments, 72 public-housing buildings, and 34 approved low-income units. These are the source's category counts, not vacancies or independently verified currently available units. The aggregator separately gives the Glenwood card as 72 total buildings, while its Glenwood detail page exposes 41 building/address rows. The 41 rows are building/location references, not vacancies or rental-unit addresses; some reuse the official Housing Authority office address at 1013 31st St. Neither the 72 nor 41 figure is a unit count. Source: https://hudhousingnetwork.com/la/jefferson/kenner/ and https://hudhousingnetwork.com/la/jefferson/kenner/public-housing-details/glenwood. HOUSING AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF KENNER — OFFICIAL CONTACT / APPLICATION RESOURCE Official authority website: http://kennerha.com/. Official contact page gives the relocated office at 1013 31st St, Kenner, LA 70065, phone (504) 467-9166: http://kennerha.com/contact.aspx. This is the authority's office contact, not an address or phone for any of the third-party property cards. The aggregator's authority listing instead prints 1003 31st St, Kenner, LA; that listing is not used as the current office address. APPLICATION AND WAITLIST STATUS The official KHA home page stated its Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) and Project-Based Voucher (PBV) waitlists were closed as reviewed 2026-09-30. This is not a conclusion about the Public Housing waitlist. Applicant information: http://kennerha.com/applicants.aspx; online application: https://www.pha-web.com/portals/onlineApplication/1521; waitlist status lookup: https://www.pha-web.com/portals/waitingListStatus/1521. The directory's “Section 8 Waiting Lists Open September 2026” is a third-party article teaser, not evidence that a Kenner-specific list is open: https://hudhousingnetwork.com/articles/section-8-waitlist-openings/section-8-waiting-lists-open-september-2026. Verify all current program and application status with KHA. INDEPENDENT OPERATOR CONFIRMATION — ONE PUBLIC, UNVERIFIED RENTAL RECORD Silver Tree Residential describes Westminster Tower Senior Apartments as one income-based Section 8-assisted community at 2301 Idaho Avenue, Kenner LA 70062, with 282 one-bedroom apartments for seniors age 62 and older, on-site laundry, off-street parking, lounge and community room. The directory separately claims 200 Westminster Tower units and 81 Westminster Tower II units “available”; these are not verified vacancies or two confirmed properties. No current opening, rent, waitlist or criminal-history policy has been confirmed. Call the property at 504-469-4056 (TTY 711) for current terms. Operator: https://st-residential.com/2025/07/29/westminster-tower . Directory: https://hudhousingnetwork.com/la/jefferson/kenner/ . Westminster Tower II is not a separately operator-confirmed community. Glenwood is not published as an active rental because Kenner Housing Authority’s FY2024 audited statements report its storm-damaged units demolished: https://lla.la.gov/publicreports.nsf/0/99018c471f3505a286258c4b005a7edb/$file/00006fe9.pdf .
