Mission Statement
The Housing Authority of Glasgow exists to provide decent, affordable housing that is serviceable and economically efficient for eligible families and individuals and to promote the social well-being and economic independence of residents in an appropriate environment.
The Housing Authority of Glasgow was established in 1958, and over the years has grown to include not only our Public Housing units, but also the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program for Glasgow and Barren County.
Public Housing
The Housing Authority of Glasgow is the largest provider of affordable assisted housing in Barren County, currently offering 367 apartments located at six (6) separate sites. Four of those sites, containing 297 apartments, are located within the Glasgow city limits. The remaining 70 apartments are part of our two (2) sites located in Cave City. For more detailed information about the individual sites click on the individual site tabs on the Home Page.
Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher
The Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program is a rental assistance program that allows qualified participants to rent a housing unit in the private market. Once the qualified participant is issued a voucher for rental assistance they are free to find a suitable housing unit within Barren County that meets the various guidelines of the program.
