Seniors' Housing

The Saskatoon Housing Authority provides well maintained, affordable housing for seniors. A combination of housing and services helps individuals maintain their independence. There are centralized laundry facilities in each building. No pets are allowed.

The Saskatoon Housing Authority manages three types of housing for seniors:

Income-based rent	For low-income adults, age 60+, where rent is graduated based on income, rent is approximately 29% of gross monthly income. Priority given to applicants with greatest need based on income, current shelter costs, current housing conditions, and whether current housing conditions aggravate a health problem or are unsuitable because of a disability.
Fixed rent	For adults, age 55+, who do not require a subsidy—rents are a fixed rental rate slightly below the average market rent and are not based on income. Security deposits are required. Maximum income limit for singles or couples is $44,500 per year to qualify.
Life-Interest lease	For moderate-income adults, age 55+, where there is security of tenure similar to homeownership but without the responsibilities of maintenance and upkeep.
