Public housing

Public housing is a form of housing tenure in which the property is usually owned by a government authority, which may be central or local. Public housing is a form to give homes to poor people or the homeless.

Social housing is any rental housing that may be owned and managed by the state.[1] Social housing can also be seen as a potential answer to housing inequality.

Private housing is a form of housing tenure in which the property is owned by a private developer.
