About MONROE AVENUE APARTMENTS
MONROE AVENUE APARTMENTS is a HUD-assisted rental property in Birmingham, Alabama. According to HUD's Multifamily Properties (Assisted) dataset, the building has 76 total units, of which 41 receive federal rental assistance under Section 8 Project-Based Rental Assistance and Section 8 LMSA. That means the resident's share of rent is generally limited to roughly 30% of adjusted household income, with HUD covering the remainder of the contract rent paid to the owner.

How to apply
Project-based Section 8 properties keep their own waiting lists. To apply to MONROE AVENUE APARTMENTS:
- Call the management office at the number above (or use the contact below) and ask whether the waiting list is open.
- Request an application packet. Most properties will mail or email it; some require you to pick it up in person.

- Return the application as instructed. Keep a copy for your records and write down the date you submitted it.
- Update your contact information any time you move or change phone numbers — properties remove applicants who can't be reached.
