Brillion Housing Authority

About Us

The Brillion Housing Authority, located in Brillion, Wisconsin, has been the area's leading provider of low-income retirement housing since 1969. Serving residents in Brown, Calumet, and surrounding counties, our mission is to offer safe, affordable, and quality housing options to elderly individuals and low-income members of the community.
We proudly oversee two different apartment complexes in Brillion, with a total of 47 rental units designed to meet the diverse needs of our residents. Among these, Heritage Apartments specializes in serving individuals 62 years of age or older, as well as persons with disabilities.
As an independent governmental agency, the Brillion Housing Authority is governed by a four-member board made up of City of Brillion residents. We operate without the use of municipal tax dollars—funding is provided through tenant-paid rents and grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and also Rural Development (RD).
Our goal is to promote and provide adequate and affordable housing, economic opportunity, and a suitable living environment free from discrimination for low-income households. Whether you are looking for a supportive senior living environment or an affordable housing option, we are here to help.

Absolutely spotless upon move-in. There wasn't a spot I needed to clean. Snow removal is done quickly and thoroughly, even multiple times a day and even in the bitter cold. Super community vibes. Highly recommend 🙌
