About PHAs in Middlesex County
Each Public Housing Authority listed above is a separate local agency with its own administrative plan, its own waitlists, and its own selection preferences. If you are applying for housing assistance in Middlesex County, it is generally smart to apply to multiple PHAs in your area — there is no penalty for being on more than one list, and waitlists move at very different speeds even within a single county.
To get started, click any agency above to see its full contact information, programs administered, and a plain-language FAQ on how to apply. For background on the federal programs PHAs administer, our Section 8 / HCV guide and Public Housing program guide walk through how each one actually works.
