This is a non-technical term that the Housing Opportunities Commission (HOC) uses for its broad range of non-federally subsidized housing types owned by HOC and located throughout the County. They may be multifamily developments or scattered sites. Usually, they serve lower or moderate income people, rather than those of very low income.

Some of HOC's multifamily Opportunity Housing developments are Chevy Chase Lake, Fairfax Court, Greenhills, Pooks Hill Tower, Sligo Hills, and Tanglewood. HOC has a moderately priced rental program that includes opportunity housing. For further assistance and to find a Moderate Income Rental Program office, please click on the link below.
