man httpd_selinux says:

       SELinux policy for httpd can be setup to not allowed to access
       users home directories.  If you want to allow access to users
       home directories you need to set the httpd_enable_homedirs
       boolean and change the context of the files that you want people
       to access off the home dir.

       setsebool -P httpd_enable_homedirs 1
       chcon -R -t httpd_sys_content_t ~user/public_html
