Your rights

Colorado bans source-of-income discrimination statewide under HB20-1332 (effective January 1, 2021) — a landlord generally cannot refuse you simply because you would pay with a Housing Choice Voucher. Landlords with three or fewer rental units are exempt.

Neighborhood

Westwood sits in southwest Denver, served by RTD bus routes along Morrison Road and Federal Boulevard.

For current waitlist information, call DHA at (720) 932-3000 (or (720) 932-3021 for public housing applications), or visit denverhousing.org. Applications are free.
