WHAT IS PUBLIC HOUSING?
Public housing was established to provide quality, safe rental housing for eligible low-income families, the elderly, and persons with disabilities. Public housing comes in all sizes and types, from scattered single family houses to highrise apartments. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) administers Federal aid to the Albany Housing Authority to maintain safe and well-kept apartments in the city of Albany.
