Myrtle Oaks

Myrtle Oaks is a 99-unit apartment complex for low income seniors located in northeast Tampa.  Sponsored by Gulf Coast JFCS and under the auspices of a separate housing corporation, Myrtle Oaks was funded by a $5.7 million grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

How it works:

Tenants are required to undergo a screening process for eligibility. After acceptance, the tenants’ portion of the rent is based on the household’s adjusted monthly income (appx 30%) and HUD subsidizes the remainder of the tenants’ rent.

The well-maintained facility is complemented by quality-of-life enhancing activities.

Service Coordinators are on staff and available to help with any additional services or benefits for which the tenants are eligible.

Gulf Coast Heron Housing, Inc. provides fair treatment and use of our building’s services and facilities, without regard to race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, familial status (children under 18), national origin (ethnicity or language), or in some circumstances, age.
