There are commission for housing all over the United States. Once you understand that there is a program in San Diego you should understand that there is a program that probably exists in Temecula. I woold google “Temecula Affordable Housing Programs” and start doing my research.
Carlsbad has it’s own housing programs and they use an equity share program. WHen Bressi Ranch was built the developer had to set aside a certain amoutn of units as affordable housing units.
Anytime you see a large scale development you need to understand that there are a portion ofr those new units that are goiing to go to a low or moderate income family or the builder is going to have to pay in lieu fees and face challenges gettting their projects approved form city councils.
Here I did the look up for you
Affordable Housing Is Available
The Housing Authority of the County of Riverside is currently taking applications for the Affordable Public Housing Program. Units become vacant at unpredictable times. Register now so that you will have your name on the list when it comes time to draw from the list.
The Affordable Public Housing Program allows you to pay 30 percent of your monthly income for rent. Low-income families that live or work in the County of Riverside are urged to apply now. Elderly and disabled residents are also encouraged to apply.
This is a federally funded program administered by the Housing Authority of the County of Riverside. The Housing Authority has been serving the County for over 50 years.
Who Can Participate in the Affordable Housing Program?
The program is for families whose annual income is classified as “low-income” (below 80 percent of the area median income, see income guideline).
How Does It Work?
When you call an office, request a waiting list registration form. The program has been called “conventional housing” or “public housing” or “HUD affordable housing.” The units are owned and managed by the Housing Authority of the County of Riverside. The rent amount paid by the tenant is 30 percent of the family’s adjusted income.
Are There Other Eligibility Requirements?
In addition to income limits, other factors are considered in the application process. One requirement is that eligible family members have legal residency in the United States. Criminal records are reviewed, since violent criminal activity and drug-related criminal activity are disqualifying factors. Credit reports are run, and references are checked to verify rent payment history and the family’s suitability for tenancy.
Families in which the head of household or spouse is elderly, disabled, or working are given preference. All information must be verified prior to being determined eligible.
Where Are the Affordable Units Located?
They are located in various cities throughout Riverside County. Riverside County is divided into East and West areas. The East County area encompasses the Banning-Beaumont area to Blythe. The West County area covers the Moreno Valley area to Corona.

Is There a Long Wait?
The wait for affordable housing assistance can vary from a short wait while your application is being processed to a year or more depending on which location you select and the required unit size. There are some larger units in the East County for which the wait is shorter. The one-bedroom units have a much longer waiting list (whether in the East or West area) because there are few one-bedroom units.

What Kind of Rental Units Are Offered in the Affordable Housing Program?
The units are multi-family rental units but are of various kinds. Some are single story row units and others are town-house type units. There are no single-family homes available.
Important Notes
When your name is drawn from the waiting list and you are determined to be eligible, you will be offered a unit. If you turn down the unit that is available, you will be returned to the waiting list and be placed at the bottom of the list. If you turn down a unit a second time, you will be removed from the list and will need to re-register for the program.
