The Metropolitan Toronto Housing Authority (MTHA) was created by Metropolitan Toronto in the 1950s to deal with housing for the poor, and to eliminate the development of slums in the old City of Toronto, and adjacent suburbs. In 2002, four years after the amalgamation of Toronto, it merged with other public housing providers to form the Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC), which is one of the largest public housing providers in North America. In October 2008, TCHC was named one of "Canada's Top 100 Employers" by Mediacorp Canada Inc., and was featured in Maclean's newsmagazine. Later that month, TCHC was also named one of Greater Toronto's Top Employers, which was announced by the Toronto Star newspaper.

TCHC has:

  • 164,000 low and moderate-income tenants in 58,000 households
  • 360 high-rise and low-rise apartment buildings
  • about 800 houses and duplexes throughout the city

Key areas of TCHC include:

  • Regent Park, currently being redeveloped
  • Don Mount Court, redevelopment completed
  • Lawrence Heights, planned redevelopment

Fleet

  • Chevrolet Silverado pickups
  • Chevrolet Impala
  • Ford F-series trucks

Past names

  • Metro Toronto Housing Authority (????-1999)
  • Metro Toronto Housing Corporation (1999-2001)
  • Toronto Community Housing (2001-2005)
