Workforce Housing Development Program

Free workshops - A number of workshops outlining the incentives for building workforce housing will be held this year. Interested developers and attorneys can learn more and register here.

The Miami-Dade County Workforce Housing Development Program is a voluntary program that provides density bonuses and other incentives for the development of workforce housing. Workforce housing is defined as housing that is affordable for families whose incomes are within 60 to 140 percent of the County's area median income as reported by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development and adjusted to family size ($42,600 to $99,400, respectively, for a family of four).

Those who are interested in qualifying to rent or purchase a workforce housing unit, should call the Department of Public Housing and Community Development at 786-469-2209 for more information.

The information on this page is intended to be a guide for developers who want to build workforce housing units. 

Developers interested in participating in the Workforce Housing Development Program should become familiar with the approval process. See related documents and call 305-375-1806 for more information.
