At Lincoln Village, we offer more than affordable housing. All of our residents are part of a program called Evolve. Each resident meets twice a month with their Neighborhood Coordinator who walks alongside them to help them meet the goals they have set for themself and become all that God created them to be.
Requirements:
- Residents must be US citizens or permanent residents.
- Adults must be either single parents or legally married parents with full or partial custody of their children. Preference is given to those with children under the age of 13.
- Residents must work at least 30 hours a week and your monthly income must fall within the range on the chart below. We also prefer that you have worked at your current job for 6 months.

All adults (19 years & older) must meet the minimum required income and work hours and submit a separate application including all additional documentation. If there are 2 adults in the household, please add $900 to the minimum monthly take home pay.
If you are self-employed and cannot provide documentation of your work hours, the 30 hour/week work requirement can be waived. In this case, the minimum income requirement will be $600 more than the amounts listed above and the same income documentation submitted to the IRS will be required.
