BROOKINGS COUNTY HRC LOCATOR AND VOUCHER REVIEW — https://www.brookingscountysd.gov/RealEstate.aspx, reviewed September 30, 2026. The supplied link is Brookings COUNTY's general Real Estate Locator, with Residential/Commercial and For Sale/Rent search filters. Its FEATURED residential section says 'There are no available properties at this time.' This is NOT a Brookings Housing & Redevelopment Commission apartment directory. A rent-only search using the county locator on September 30 returned 'There are no properties available for your search criteria.' Neither that result nor the empty featured section proves there are no rentals outside this county locator. No named apartment, individual rental street, price, amenity or application is identified on the supplied page, so no property card or map pin has been invented. The county's actual https://www.brookingscountysd.gov/445/Housing-Redevelopment-Commission says Brookings County Housing & Redevelopment Commission provides income-qualified Section 8 rental assistance in FIVE counties: Hamlin, Moody, Brookings, Kingsbury and Deuel. Section 8 is assistance, not a named apartment or a guaranteed approval for an applicant with a conviction. Confirm eligibility, current waitlist intake, landlord participation and screening with the commission. Its https://www.brookingscountysd.gov/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Minutes/_07162026-1278 dated JULY 16, 2026 identifies commission contact 605-692-1670 at 1310 S Main Ave, Suite 106, Brookings, SD 57006 (OFFICE, not housing). The minutes report 228 people receiving Section 8 assistance INCLUDING a six-unit Mod-Rehab component, about 79 on the waiting list, seven voucher holders looking for housing and two awaiting inspections. These are a dated program snapshot, NOT six identified apartment sites, current openings or proof the list accepts new applications; no Mod-Rehab residential address is given. Call the commission before visiting or applying.
