How do Tax Credit Apartments work?

Appleton apts is a Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) apartment community in Los Angeles, California. LIHTC properties — also called Section 42 housing or tax credit apartments — are income-restricted rentals developed with federal tax credits administered by state Housing Finance Agencies (HFAs). Qualifying residents pay rent based on a percentage of the Area Median Income (AMI) for Los Angeles. Based on 2024 data, the local AMI for the 90005 zip code is $44,065 for a single person and $62,951 for a 4-person household. These figures make Los Angeles tax credit apartments among the most affordable rentals available without a Section 8 voucher.

To qualify, your total household income must fall at or below the income limit set for this property. Unlike public housing, LIHTC income-restricted apartments are privately managed and require you to apply directly to the property. Rent is fixed at a discounted rate tied to AMI — not to your specific income — so your monthly payment stays predictable.

By law, LIHTC properties must remain rent-restricted for a minimum of 30 years. Appleton apts was placed in service around 1990, keeping rents income-restricted at least through ~1990.
