The New Bedford Housing Authority
is a public housing authority, an agency operated with public funds and rents paid by residents of the Authority.  The Authority is dedicated to providing quality public housing to eligible clients.

The New Bedford Housing Authority owns and manages 2551 apartments of public housing located within the Historic Whaling City of
New Bedford, Massachusetts. In addition, the Authority manages approximately 1800 housing subsidy  vouchers.  These vouchers provide financial assistance to qualified households for renting privately owned apartments in the Greater New Bedford Area.

Subsidized funding for both the public housing assistance and the voucher programs is from the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts' Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD).
