Calgary Housing

Calgary Housing provides safe and affordable housing solutions for low- and moderate-income Calgarians in need of non-market rental housing. We operate more than 7,100 housing units and administer approximately 3,080 private landlord rent supplements. We meet tenant needs through our varied programs, which include: -subsidized housing -near market rentals (approx. 10% below market rates) -rent supplements for tenants with private landlords Our building management strategy uses a “mixed income model” that combines below market rates with deep subsidies. By balancing the proportion of units within an individual building, Calgary Housing ensures that new affordable housing developments are financially sustainable while providing an inclusionary approach to housing where tenants of mixed financial means are blended together. In 2024, Calgary Housing began acting as development manager for City of Calgary affordable housing projects. We are also pursuing our own development and redevelopment projects with a pipeline of homes to be constructed over the next decade to help address the housing crisis in Calgary.
