The Housing Division administers federal grants received by the City to maintain and improve both specific lower
income neighborhoods and affordable housing throughout the
city. Funds from the US Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) are used to provide low interest loans to rehabilitate homes and to support the development of housing
by non profit organizations. HUD funds are also employed to help support necessary public services to populations
most in need of assistance, including at-risk youth, seniors, the disabled and the homeless. The Housing Division
also oversees the production of affordable units mandated by regulatory controls. Such units are targeted to lower income
households. Once developed, they are monitored so that affordability is maintained over time.
The City of Modesto offers a variety of housing assistance and housing rehabilitation programs, including
homebuyer assistance.
