About Public Housing

Stretching from San Pedro to San Fernando Valley and from Mar Vista to East Los Angeles, the Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles manages more than 60 public housing locations (large developments, scattered and senior sites) throughout Los Angeles.  The Public Housing Program provides affordable housing to more than 6,500 families with very low income in Los Angeles.  A resident's rent in the public housing program is subsidized by the federal government.  Applicants to the public housing program must be income eligible and residents must adhere to program rules.
