New York City Housing Connect currently has seven open lotteries that New Yorkers interested in living in various parts of Queens can apply to. The listings include locations in Jackson Heights, Hillside Avenue, Long Island City, Astoria, Rego Park and Jamaica. The income range for the housing selection is between $55,000- $200,000 depending on the location chosen and median household income. To apply for the affordable housing available, New York City residents can create an account on NYC Housing Connect, a universal portal that allows residents to apply for affordable housing online and track the progress of their applications. Creating an application includes submitting household information including household income, the number of residents, and other personal application information.
