Housing

The Tampa Housing Authority was incorporated in 1939 and provides housing opportunities to more than 21,000 residents in the Tampa Bay area. This Agency currently administers 3,026 public housing units and 10,235 Housing Choice Vouchers (Section 8). The main office is located near downtown Tampa in the North Boulevard community adjacent to the Bethune High-rise.

During FY2005, the Tampa Housing Authority (THA) made a number of changes in Assisted Housing that enabled the THA to receive a "High Performer" status for the first time from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
