About This Roebling Arms for the Disabled
Roebling Arms provides affordable housing for individuals with mobility impairments, making it a rare residential option in Southern New Jersey. This low-rise housing complex has two stories and is federally subsidized, offering various amenities to help residents live independently. To qualify for residency, individuals must meet the income limits set by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the occupancy policy established by the sponsor. Rent is calculated based on the resident's income using a formula specified by HUD. Roebling Arms has a total of 24 apartments, including 16 one-bedroom units and 8 studios. Utilities such as heat and water are included, and there is an on-site management and maintenance staff available with 24-hour emergency on-call services. The apartments are equipped with air conditioning, and doorways are wider than average at 36 inches instead of the standard 30 inches. Electric outlets are raised to 24 inches above the floor for easy access by wheelchair-bound residents. The bathrooms are designed with roll-in showers, raised toilets, and grab bars to allow for easy transfer, and the kitchens have lower sinks and cabinetry to provide easy access from a wheelchair. On-site laundry facilities are accessible, and there are closed-circuit video security cameras for tenants to view visitors from an in-house TV channel. An intercom system facilitates guest entry. Roebling Arms also features a community room with a widescreen theater system and a kitchen for small social gatherings of residents. There is also a computer learning center with high-speed internet access. Emergency pull cords are available in every bathroom and bedroom. This apartment complex accepts HUD subsidies, meaning that if you qualify for low-income housing and there are available apartments, rent is based on 30% of your Adjusted Gross Income.
