Chester County HA

The Housing Authority of the County of Chester was established in 1963 to meet the housing needs of low and very low income residents of Chester County PA. Public Housing developments were built in Coatesville and South Coatesville, West Chester, Phoenixville and Oxford. Through a HOPE VI program, initiated in 1998, the public housing buildings in Coatesville and South Coatesville were demolished or renovated and there are now public housing units in projects owned by various limited partnerships in these boroughs. One family site in West Chester was also renovated through a tax credit program.
