The Altoona Housing Authority is a municipal authority that was created to administer and develop affordable housing for low income families in the City of Altoona. The Housing Authority was created in 1949 to develop Pleasant Village, a 126 unit Veteran’s Housing development which opened in 1951. Today the Housing Authority provides assistance to families in Altoona through its Public Housing, Section 8, and Pleasant Village housing opportunities.
