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

Southwest Detroit along West Warren Avenue is served by DDOT bus routes with connections toward Midtown and downtown Detroit.
