Toronto Community Housing is home to over 164,000 tenants living in communities across Toronto. If you are interested in making Toronto Community Housing your home, you can apply as a:

• Rent Geared-to-Income applicant, or
• Market rent applicant.

Rent Geared-to-Income (RGI) Housing

About 93% of tenants pay a subsidized rent. This is called Rent Geared-to-Income (RGI). Your rent is determined by your income.

There is a waiting list for this type of housing. The waiting list is managed by Housing Connections. Housing Connections provides consistent, fair and quality access to RGI housing in Toronto. Visit Housing Connections for more information.

How to apply for RGI housing:
If you are interested in subsidized housing, you must apply to Housing Connections. You will not receive subsidized housing any faster by taking a market rent unit with Toronto Community Housing.

Market Rent

Toronto Community Housing has units available for singles, families and seniors who can afford to pay market rent rates. Market rent rates are not subsidized. 

If you are interested in living in a market rent unit at Toronto Community Housing, you need to submit an application for market rent, found below.

If you have insufficient income and you need someone to guarantee your rent, please read and submit the guarantors form with your application.
