Local housing information for Weirton

Local housing resources

WEIRTON HOUSING AUTHORITY PUBLIC-HOUSING RESOURCE — Reviewed September 30, 2026. Weirton Housing Authority says it provides public housing for families in Weirton (https://weirtonha-wv.com/). The City of Weirton describes its programs as family communities and senior high-rise rental apartments (https://www.cityofweirton.com/250/Housing-Authority), but neither these pages nor the authority's public site names individual residential properties, house addresses, rents, bedroom counts, vacancies, application openings or conviction-specific acceptance rules. Do not treat the 525 Cove Road contact address as a confirmed rental entrance or a named available apartment. For an up-to-date property list, application instructions and written screening policy, contact the authority at 304-797-8530 or weirtonha@frontier.com (https://weirtonha-wv.com/Contact-Us). Its online-portal link (https://weirtonha-wv.com/Online-Portal) leads to https://apps.weirtonha-wv.com/Default.aspx, which describes registration for landlords and current residents; it does not show a public house-listing or applicant application. A public-housing program is a lead to inquire about, not a confirmed vacancy or approval for an applicant with a conviction.
