How do I find cheap apartments in Florida?

The most reliable way to find cheap apartments in Florida is to search income-restricted and Live Local communities, where rents are set below the local market through Florida's Live Local Act and other income-restricted housing programs. Afford Florida lists these buildings across all 67 counties so you can compare the lowest advertised rents in your city.

What are income-restricted or Live Local apartments?

Income-restricted apartments reserve homes for households earning at or below a set percentage of the county median income. Florida's Live Local Act (SB 102) encourages owners to set aside these units, and Afford Florida indexes hundreds of participating communities across the state.

What income do I need to qualify for affordable apartments in Florida?

Income limits are set each year for every Florida county by the Florida Housing Finance Corporation. Most Live Local units are open to households earning up to 120% of the county median income. Enter your income on Afford Florida to see the 2026 limit for your county and which buildings you may qualify for.
