Senior Housing Complexes
Most senior housing complexes rent apartments to people age 62 and older and/or younger people who have permanent disabilities. However, some also rent apartments to younger people who do not have disabilities and/or families.
Apartment Locator
The Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency has an
apartment locator in which you can plug in our county to see what apartments are currently open and the rental cost.
Home Sharing
To address the challenge that so many women in our region face in finding affordable housing, PA Home of the Sparrow is proud to operate the HomeShare Alliance in partnership with the YWCA of Chester County. The program matches low income women in need of homes with home providers who are able to share their homes at an affordable cost. For more information, contact the HomeShare Coordinator at 610-647-5256.
