About Liberty Square

Liberty Square, in Miami's Liberty City, opened in 1937 and is one of the oldest public housing communities in the South. It is being redeveloped in phases as Liberty Square Rising; HUD records list several completed rental phases near NW 67th Street. Rent in the public housing units is income-based, set at about 30% of adjusted household income.

How to apply

1. Apply through miamidade.gov/housing when the public housing or Housing Choice Voucher waitlist is open
2. Waitlists open and close periodically and are often taken by lottery — check current status with PHCD
3. You can indicate development preferences; Liberty Square may be available
4. When a matching unit is available, PHCD contacts you for an eligibility review and an offer

Rent is about 30% of adjusted household income — there is no flat market rent.

Your rights

Miami-Dade County protects renters from source-of-income discrimination under County Code Chapter 11A — landlords generally cannot refuse you simply because you would pay with a Housing Choice Voucher. Florida has no statewide protection, so this right comes from county law and applies within Miami-Dade County.

Neighborhood

Liberty City sits in northwest Miami-Dade, served by Miami-Dade Transit bus routes with connections toward downtown Miami and Brownsville.
