Scattered Site Properties

In 2005, the CHA completed rehabs on all 2,543 units of scattered site housing. These structures are indistinguishable from market-rate homes in communities throughout Chicago. Under the Plan for Transformation, renovations included new kitchen cabinets, countertops, improved closet space, new bathroom sinks and fixtures, modern lighting, and freshly painted walls.

Scattered site units are divided relative to their location of the city – North Central, North East, South East, South West and West. Within each region, scattered sites are classified by community areas, which are only open to current residents of each corresponding community area. (i.e. to be eligible for scattered site housing in the West Town community, you must be living within the CHA designated street boundaries of West Town).

CHA leaseholders requesting a transfer unit and Housing Choice Voucher holders, also qualify to live in scattered site units.
