CalHomeAid transforms the official Orange County Affordable Housing PDF into a clean, searchable web application. The tool was created by a single father who experienced firsthand the difficulty of navigating the housing list while searching for affordable housing for his family. The platform offers real-time search functionality, smart filters, and mobile-friendly cards that display phone numbers. Users can search by name or address and filter by city, housing type, number of bedrooms, and status. The interface is designed to be accessible and easy to use, especially for those searching from mobile devices. All features are available completely free with no sign-up required. The service is regularly updated to ensure the housing information remains current. The tool addresses the common experience of shelters and organizations simply sending the same large PDF to those seeking housing assistance. The web app format makes the housing directory significantly more navigable than the original PDF, particularly for users under stress who may be searching for housing options at night on their phones. The mobile-optimized design ensures that phone numbers and key information are easily accessible. CalHomeAid serves families and individuals in Orange County who are searching for affordable housing options. The platform is particularly valuable for those who have received the official PDF from shelters or organizations and need a more user-friendly way to explore their housing options.
