Low income households will soon have new rental options. Waitlists for two newly developed affordable housing communities in Fallbrook and San Marcos will open this week.
Applicants can submit applications from March 9 at 7:30 a.m. through March 20 at 11:59 p.m. for the Mirasol Meadows and Villa Serena waitlists.
A lottery will determine placements, applying early does not increase the chance of being selected.
Mirasol Meadows, located at 528 E. Alvarado Street in Fallbrook, offers 47 one- and two-bedroom units for seniors ages 62 and older who meet income and program requirements.
Villa Serena, at 339 Marcos Street in San Marcos, includes two residential buildings with one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments. Ten units are supported by project-based vouchers and will be filled through the newly opened waitlist.
Applications may be submitted online, by phone, or in person. Selected applicants must meet federal eligibility requirements and will undergo property management screening before approval.

Project based vouchers are tied to the unit, not households. Each new County project-based development will have its own separate waitlist.
The County’s Housing and Community Development Services (HCDS) works to expand affordable housing opportunities by using County excess land, project-based vouchers, land acquisition, new construction, permanent supportive housing units and partnerships with cities and developers. Each year, HCDS helps more than 20,000 people access safe affordable housing and supports an additional 25,000 people through Housing Authority programs.
