To obtain social housing (or housing HLM), it must be applied for and not exceed a maximum income.

The waiting time to get the accommodation varies depending on its location. We explain.
Île-de-France
You can simulate your eligibility, given the amount of your income. Be careful, there are situations where this maximum amount can be exceeded.
Simulate your eligibility for social housing
You must use the following simulator:
Know if you are eligible for social housing
FYI
You can apply for social housing, regardless of the amount of your income and the result given by the simulator.
Know the maximum income amount
To obtain housing, the total of annual revenues of persons to be housed must not exceed a maximum amount.
The annual income is the reference tax income of the year n-2, which is entered on the tax notice of the year n-1. For a housing application made in 2026, these are reference tax revenue for 2024, listed on the 2025 tax assessment.
The persons to be housed are the following:
- Yourself (applicant)
- Your co-applicant : spouse or partner of Civil partnerships or common-law partner, or a member of your family who is not dependent on you (only among these: grandfather, grandmother, mother, father, son, daughter, granddaughter, grandson, brother, sister)
- People and children figurative on your tax assessment or that of your co-applicant. These include children with disabilities regardless of their age, children under 21 (including in alternate care if declared at the home of each parent), students under 25 and people with a mobility card disability inclusion (or disability card).
- Children rights of access and accommodation
FYI
The roommate shall not be counted in persons to be housed.
The maximum amount depends on the municipality where the social housing requested is located:

The waiting period for social housing varies according to the department requested. For each department, it is possible to know the unusually long waiting time to obtain social housing.
The waiting time before you are offered accommodation is very variable. It depends in particular on the following:
- Your personal situation (for example, the request of a disabled person, poorly housed, homeless, threatened with eviction or victim of violence is a priority)
- The type of accommodation (number of rooms, shared or not...) and the municipality requested. You can consult the number of social housing units for each municipality.
