HUD's LIHTC database lists 79 tax-credit apartment communities in Jersey City, together offering about 3,275 income-restricted units out of 5,205 total units.

Often yes - most LIHTC properties accept Housing Choice Vouchers, which lowers your out-of-pocket rent further. See New Jersey Section 8 waiting lists to apply for a voucher.
