Who We Serve
We build, advocate for, and manage permanent affordable housing in Durham.
The biggest need for affordable housing in Durham is for families at 30% area median income (AMI) and below, whom we serve.
Below are the Durham metro income limits eligible for land trust housing based on the number of persons living in a household as of June 2022.
| 1 person | 2 person | 3 person | 4 person | |
| 30% AMI | $20,100 | $22,950 | $25,800 | $28,650 |
| 60% AMI | $40,140 | $45,840 | $51,600 | $57,300 |
| 80% AMI | $53,500 | $61,150 | $68,800 | $76,400 |
An average DCLT rent = $460 whereas Durham’s average rent in 2020 was $1200.
That’s a difference of $700 monthly or $8,000 annually!
