Nine new affordable housing developments coming to San Francisco are expected to provide at least 50 rental units for people living with HIV.
One project will be located on upper Market Street in the city's LGBTQ Castro district, another in Chinatown, and the rest are all located South of Market.
Construction on the projects, which will all have 100 or more units, isn't expected to begin until 2023 at the earliest. When the buildings open to residents, the rents for the HIV+ housing units will be set at no more than 50% of the Area Median Income.
In San Francisco the AMI for a single-family household is currently at $46,650. Thus, the rent for a studio would be $1,166 and $1,333 for a one bedroom.
