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
Northeast Dallas is served by DART bus routes with connections toward downtown Dallas.
For current waitlist information, call DHA at (214) 951-8800 or visit dhantx.com. Applications are free.
We'll email you when voucher-friendly housing becomes available near here.
