The Section 8 housing waitlist for the city of Tucson is re-opening on Tuesday. Applicants will be selected in February using a lottery system.

The waitlist for City-owned public housing and @cityoftucson and @pimaarizona housing choice vouchers will soon be opened. Next month, an outreach campaign will launch to inform residents about the waitlist and invite them to apply. 🏘️https://t.co/l3stDi3iNX pic.twitter.com/99E45VcCoC
