Your rights

As of April 2, 2025, Michigan law (Senate Bills 205-207) bans source-of-income discrimination statewide — a landlord generally cannot refuse you simply because you would pay with a Housing Choice Voucher. Landlords who own five or fewer rental units are generally exempt.

Neighborhood

Detroit's east side along East Jefferson is served by DDOT bus routes with connections toward downtown Detroit and the riverfront.

For current waitlist information, call DHC at (313) 877-8000 or visit dhcmi.org. Applications are free.
