Low Income Housing for Defense Communities Act

This bill modifies tax incentives to increase affordable housing near military installations. It excludes military housing allowances (payments under 37 U.S.C. § 403) from income calculations when determining eligibility for low-income housing tax credits, directly helping service members and their families qualify for affordable housing. It also designates buildings within 15 miles of large military installations (valued over $2.833 billion) as "difficult development areas" for tax credit purposes, encouraging developers to build in these areas. The bill does not require such housing to be occupied solely by military members. These changes apply to tax credit determinations made after the bill's enactment.
