About RUSH SENIOR GARDENS
RUSH SENIOR GARDENS is a HUD-assisted rental property in East Saint Louis, Illinois. According to HUD's Multifamily Properties (Assisted) dataset, the building has 53 total units, of which 53 receive federal rental assistance under Section 202 / 811 Supportive Housing and PRAC (Project Rental Assistance Contract). 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.
This property primarily serves elderly residents (62+). About 100% of current residents are 62 or older, which is consistent with a Section 202 supportive housing community.
If you'd like to apply, contact the property's management office below. Project-based Section 8 waiting lists are managed by the property, not by your local public housing authority — you must apply to each building separately.
