Welcome to McDonough Housing Authority

The McDonough Housing Authority (MHA) is a federally funded agency, operating independently of City government. We help provide low and moderate-income public housing for the City of McDonough and through partner programs, offer our residents opportunities to improve their lives. Let us know if we can help – explore the site for additional information or contact us directly at 770-957-4494.

The McDonough Housing Authority owns and operates 118 units of conventional public housing located at three sites: Lamar Point, located off Lewis Street, Hooten Street Apartments, and Weaver-Thurman Crossing, located off Church Circle. Our apartments are all brick construction, with central heat and air conditioning. The interior of the units are fitted with Energy Star-rated appliances. Washer and dryer connections come standard at Lamar Point and Weaver- Thurman Crossing, while only the two and three bedroom units have washer hookups at Hooten Street Apartments. All of our housing developments are in close proximity to employment centers, religious and educational institutions, and recreational and cultural amenities.

The McDonough Housing Authority does not operate a Section 8 program.  That program is handled through the Georgia Department of Community Affairs, and can be reached at:
