Public Housing Waiting List

Please note: The waiting list for family public housing is currently closed.

The HPHA offers three public housing communities for families and senior/disabled individuals.

There are two ways to apply for public housing:

1. Visit the HPHA office to pick up an application, located at 242 South Sixth Ave., Highland Park, NJ 08904, during normal office hours.

2. Request an application be mailed to you by calling 732-572-4420 during normal office hours.

Once the application has been completed, you must call the housing authority to schedule an interview. 

Be sure to bring these documents with you at the time of you interview: social security cards, birth certificates, proof of all income, photo IDs for all adult household members, and bank statements.

The HPHA does have a preference point system that may improve your spot on the waiting list; veteran, or live and/or work in Highland Park.

More information can be found by visiting the HPHA website at http://highlandparkhousing.org/, or by calling 732-572-4420 during normal office hours.
