Your rights

Texas has no source-of-income protection, and a 2015 state law (Local Government Code § 250.007) bars Texas cities from requiring landlords to accept Housing Choice Vouchers — so a private landlord may legally decline your voucher. Federal Fair Housing protections still apply: a landlord may not refuse you based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, or disability.

Neighborhood

West Dallas is served by DART bus routes with connections across the Trinity River to downtown Dallas.
