About Littleton Housing Authority

The Littleton Housing Authority (LHA), located in Littleton, Arapahoe County, Colorado (PHA Code: CO036), manages approximately 624 assisted housing units. These primarily consist of Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV), also known as Section 8 vouchers.

Currently, all waiting lists for LHA's housing programs are closed. This includes Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV), Project-Based Vouchers (PBV), and Public Housing. While some lists, such as Public Housing, have recently transitioned from an open to a closed status, no applications are being accepted at this time.

When lists are open, eligibility typically involves meeting specific income limits. For instance, a very low-income family of four in the Denver-Aurora-Centennial, CO MSA area would need to have an annual income no greater than $70,050 to qualify. Information regarding future waiting list openings will be updated as it becomes available.
