Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA) announced that registration is now open for sixteen public housing waiting lists across the county. The filing window will remain open until 5 p.m. on September 16, 2026, and includes ten lists specifically designated for elderly residents.
Applicants who are Los Angeles County residents may submit an application for any or all of the available lists during the registration period. LACDA manages the site‑based waiting lists and permits individuals to apply to multiple lists, allowing them to increase their chances of placement in public housing.
The sixteen lists cover a range of housing sites, with ten of them earmarked for seniors. For the smaller sites, LACDA has set a threshold of 1,000 applications before the list will be officially opened, ensuring sufficient demand to justify the allocation of units.
The registration process is conducted online through LACDA’s official portal, where applicants must provide standard eligibility information required for public housing consideration. Residents are reminded that each application must be completed in full and submitted before the September 16 deadline to be considered for placement.
LACDA’s role in administering these site‑based waiting lists is part of its broader mandate to provide affordable housing options for low‑ and moderate‑income households in Los Angeles County. The opening of the lists represents a scheduled opportunity for eligible residents to enter the system and potentially secure public housing in the coming years.
Those interested are encouraged to review the eligibility criteria and submit their applications promptly, as the deadline is fixed and late submissions will not be accepted.
