About
Providing Decent, Safe Affordable Housing
Our Mission & History
The Middleborough Housing Authority (MHA) is committed to providing the best quality of life for our residents. The MHA endeavors to provide decent, safe and sanitary housing for persons of low to moderate incomes.
Presently, the Housing Authority oversees 347 housing units which includes the family housing complex at Archer Court; the elderly/handicapped housing complexes at Riverview Apartments and Nemasket Apartments; a special needs housing complex on Woodland Avenue; as well as State and Federal subsidized rental assistance voucher programs with private landlords.
MHA’s main priorities are to provide and maintain affordable rental units to persons of low income; to promote home-ownership housing opportunities; and to endeavor to meet local housing needs through community partnerships.
The Middleborough Housing Authority was created in 1948 to provide affordable housing for lower income veterans and families. We operate within the bounds of the Town of Middleborough Massachusetts and have 190 apartments and 157 vouchers. The Middleborough Housing Authority operates under guidelines set out by their regulatory agencies, the Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities (EOHLC) and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
