Housing & Neighborhood Services

The Neighborhood Services Department works with citizens, neighborhood groups, government agencies, businesses, and non-profit organizations to strengthen our neighborhoods. We administer programs and connect citizens to the services and information they need to improve their quality of life.

CDBG Programs

CDBG funds are awarded to carry out eligible housing and community development projects within the boundaries of the City of Tyler.

HOME Investment Partnership Programs

HOME funds are granted states and local government by the federal government to implement local housing strategies designed to increase homeownership and affordable housing opportunities for low and very low-income Americans.

First Time Homebuyer's Program

The First Time Homebuyer's Program helps low to moderate-income families and individuals with funding required at the time of closing.

Housing Choice Voucher

The HCV Program formerly known as Section 8 provides housing assistance for very low-income families, the elderly and the disabled, allowing them to live in decent, safe and sanitary housing for eligible participants.
