Sherman Housing Authority

Our Purpose:

The Housing Authority of Sherman was created by state statute and declared necessary for the City of Sherman by a resolution adopted on February 3, 1966. The public housing units became available for occupancy on July 31, 1970.

In order to provide safe, decent and sanitary housing for families of low-income, the Housing Authority operates 298 public housing units in developments across the city - 190 for the elderly/disabled residents, 93 for families, and 15 for physically disabled residents. Our apartments especially designed for the physically disabled include wider doorways, larger bathrooms, wheelchair ramps and handrails, and lower kitchen cabinets. These accessible apartments are available in the one, two and three bedroom sizes. Others are available in efficiency through four bedroom sizes.
