Lyngblomsten Apartments, Inc. operates under section 8/202 of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).  This means that the adjusted income of tenants must not exceed 30 percent of the monthly rent.  That amount is subject to charge.

Qualified tenants are required to pay 30 percent of their income toward the monthly rent (which is determined by HUD).  Information regarding income and assets is a part of the preliminary application process.  More detailed information will be required later.
