Gloria Dei Towers is a HUD subsidized apartment rental facility for seniors ages 62 and better with incomes meeting the United States government income limits set for Philadelphia County, PA, for low, very low and extremely low incomes. These income limits can be found here.
A HUD Section 8 subsidy is given to very low and extremely low income households who pay 30 percent of their adjusted household income toward the contract rent for their apartment, and HUD pays a subsidy to Gloria Dei Towers for the remainder of the rental amount due, on behalf of the resident. All rents are adjusted and approved by HUD.
HUD Section 236 rental assistance is provided to residents with incomes that fall under the low income limit and above the very low income limit. Section 236 rentals are based on 30 percent of adjusted household income. However, residents must pay at least a minimum basic rent but they also cannot pay more than market rent. All rents are adjusted and approved by HUD.
