To obtain low-cost public housing (HLM), the applicant must meet the maximum annual income ceiling limit. It depends on the type of housing, its location and the number of family members living in the housing facility

Updated each year, the income ceilings for 2023 have been raised by 3.5% in metropolitan France by an order published in the Journal Officiel on January 1, 2023. The new income ceiling limits are applicable from January 1 onward.

The annual income is the reference tax income of the year n-2.
If an applicant applies for social housing in 2023, the reference of income (référence de revenu) will be the income of 2021, as shown on the tax notice of 2022.
