Elderly & Accessible Housing

If you or a loved one is elderly, finding appropriate and affordable housing can be difficult. The Centre County Housing Authority owns two buildings that are for elderly residents and can help ease the cost burden of housing. Residents must meet the criteria of these buildings, and they are often placed on a waitlist until an apartment becomes available. To see if you or your family member qualifies for our elderly housing, please call (814) 355-6750 and dial extension 102.
