Do landlords don’t like to rent to disability people?

I think landlords mostly just care that you can pay your rent.

But there are some apartments with reduced housing cost that cater more to low income people and people on disability. There is also subsidized housing you can apply for, but that it can take at least a year for them to find an opening. Not sure in where you live how signing up works so you'd have to look into that, but if you're on disability you should qualify.

I think your rite Sweetleaf. There's also programs like Section 8 where you can get a subsidy to stay at whatever apartment you want as long as the landlord accepts it & it meets Section 8 guidelines. My girlfriend has it so I know alittle about the program. We live in a townhouse apartment & I think most of the people along here are lower income including elderly & refugees so there's probably some disabled people besides us around here. It's owned by a business out of state that's in it for the money.
I think some landlords or property mangers may not want to rent to disableds if the disabled will need special living accommodations like if the place will have to be modified to be wheelchair accessible, have a stairlift, or a walkin-tub for example

I found this site about disability people, they have more rights than landlords. If you are so badly disabled then you wouldn’t live on own. My sister told me that it was very hard to get into an apartment building twice.
