Maple City Square is a subsidized housing community for most low-income seniors 62 and older and 18 and older if mobility impaired. The term “subsidized housing” means that the rent is based on income. A resident pays approximately 30% of their adjusted income as rent.

If a resident qualifies, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), a U.S. government agency, will pay the remainder of the rent.

Resident rent is based on approximately 30% of the adjusted income. A good estimate of your rent would be to take 30% of your gross annual income, subtract out-of-pocket medical expenses paid, out of pocket, in the last 12 months and then divide by 12. This will give you an estimate of what your monthly rent could be.

Monthly rent includes: water, sewage, gas, recycle, refrigerator, stove, garbage disposal, drapery rods and use of the community rooms. Residents will pay their electric bill, phone expenses, cable if they elect to have it.
