Housing Authority of the County of Lackawanna Waiting List
Go to the public housing authority page for this waiting list >>
The Jessup site is our newest development. Rebuilt on the site of the old development, these units offer the newest features and are in a quiet neighborhood in Jessup. The streets in the site are Mary Jo, Ubaldo, Anthony and George drives.
Jessup is a wonderfully ethnic and hard working community with retail and grocery stores in the immediate area. Transportation is needed to get to these areas, and there is County Transportation (COLTS) also available.
This property is funded through HUD’s Public Housing program. These properties are typically owned and managed by a Public Housing Authority. These properties tend to be much older, as no new public housing has been built in many years. Since the Federal budget has historically (and notoriously) underfunded public housing renovations for decades, these properties tend to have higher vacancies due to uninhabitable units or liveable units that are in poor condition. In addition, since all public housing properties offer rent subsidies, low-income residents only pay rent based on their incomes. For that reason, these properties tend to have longer waiting lists. Check our public housing waiting list data for more information. Since Jessup Housing participates in the Public Housing program and has a property based subsidy, if you have a Section 8 voucher, you would have to give up your voucher to move in.
