DIVERSIFIED: The housing programs offered by the Lancaster County Housing and Redevelopment Authorities are designed to respond to the various housing needs of low and moderate income Lancaster County households. We administer programs which benefit homeowners, renters and landlords.

FLEXIBLE: Because we have a number of funding sources which allow us to develop local program policies, we are able to tailor our programs to respond to the specific needs of Lancaster County households.
