Your rights

Connecticut protects renters from source-of-income discrimination statewide under Conn. Gen. Stat. § 46a-64c — a landlord generally cannot refuse you, or apply stricter income requirements, because you would pay with a Housing Choice Voucher. Renting a room in an owner-occupied home, or a unit in an owner-occupied two-family building, is exempt.

Neighborhood

Hartford's North End is served by CTtransit bus routes with connections to downtown Hartford.
