Suwon Recruits Residents for 'Multi-Child Suwon Human Housing'

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Jeong Jun-sung] Suwon Special City will recruit residents for the 'Multi-Child Suwon Human Housing' from September 15-18.

Homeless households with three or more minor children (including unborn children) whose entire family has been registered as residents of Suwon for at least two consecutive years as of the announcement date (September 1) are eligible to apply. Household average monthly income must be 70% or less of the previous year's average monthly income per urban worker household, and must meet the asset standards for public rental housing (total assets of 337 million won or less, vehicle value of 38.03 million won or less).

The city will lease LH (Korea Land and Housing Corporation) purchased rental units to the top 49 applicants based on scoring criteria including length of residence in Suwon, number of children, income level, and period of being homeless. Individuals currently residing in LH purchased rental units can also receive support for security deposits and rental fees without relocating.

The rental period is 2 years, and residents can live for up to 20 years maximum if conditions are met. Suwon city will subsidize the monthly rent and security deposit, so residents only need to pay management fees.

Applicants must search for 'Multi-Child Suwon Human Housing' on the city website's announcements/notices/proposed legislation bulletin board, download the application form, complete it, and submit it. Applicants can also submit applications via email (hys50@korea.kr) or in person (Saebit Civil Service Center, 1st Floor, Main Building of Suwon City Hall). To date, Suwon city has provided Multi-Child Suwon Human Housing support to a total of 151 households.

A city official stated, “Since this is housing for children, we are doing our best to provide safe and clean housing,” and added, “We hope the Multi-Child Suwon Human Housing will contribute to stable housing for multi-child households.”
