Local housing resources
Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority: https://rkehousing.org/ ; official properties directory: https://rkehousing.org/housing-options/properties/. Contact RRHA to confirm whether a particular property has an opening. RRHA managed properties (directory checked September 30, 2026): https://rkehousing.org/housing-options/properties/. Its ten cards repeat five distinct communities. The following counts are total units, not vacancies. RRHA's September 14, 2026 application sheet (https://rkehousing.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Sites-Lists_-Accepting-Applications_9_14_26.pdf) marked all five "Not Accepting Applications"; some directory cards still say "Apply Here." Recheck current intake and screening with RRHA. The directory does not list rents or deposits. - Hillcrest Heights: 24 units; 2 and 3 bedrooms (September 2026 sheet); manager contact 540-983-9224; directory fax 540-983-7342. The directory alternates between 2034 Indian Rock Village Lane SE (24013) and 1801 Dunbar Street NW (24012). RRHA identifies these as Indian Rock Village and Villages at Lincoln contact locations; neither is confirmed here as the Hillcrest residence street. - Stepping Stone: 30 units; 1, 2 and 3 bedrooms (September 2026 sheet); manager contact 540-983-9224; directory fax 540-982-7342. The directory alternates between 2034 Indian Rock Village Lane SE (24013) and 1801 Dunbar Street NW (24012). RRHA identifies these as Indian Rock Village and Villages at Lincoln contact locations; neither is confirmed here as the Stepping Stone residence street. - Hackley Apartments: 24 units; 1 and 2 bedrooms (September 2026 sheet); manager contact 540-983-9282; directory fax 540-345-5180. One directory card says Hackley Avenue NW, ZIP 24022, but gives no street number. Another prints 2624 Salem Turnpike NW (24017), which RRHA also identifies as the Lansdowne Park manager location. The Hackley residential entrance is not established by either card. - Park Street Square: 25 units; 1, 2 and 3 bedrooms (September 2026 sheet); manager contact 540-904-2922; directory fax 540-343-6709. Both directory cards list 518 Loudon Avenue, Apt. B, Roanoke VA 24016. Apt. B is a directory reference, not an advertised available apartment. - Hurt Park Townhomes: 40 units; 2 and 3 bedrooms (September 2026 sheet); manager contact 540-904-2922; directory fax 540-904-2927. Both directory cards list 1801 Westview Avenue SW, Roanoke VA 24016. This is the directory reference for a multi-home development, not the entrance to every unit. The September 2026 PDF mistypes its ZIP as 14016.
