Housing & Development Board (HDB)

The Housing & Development Board (HDB) is Singapore's statutory authority responsible for public housing. It plans, develops, and manages affordable apartments to ensure widespread homeownership and community integration. Established in 1960, HDB transforms urban land into well-designed towns with amenities, social facilities, and transportation. Its goal is to provide quality, accessible housing options that foster a sense of belonging and stability for Singaporeans, while also promoting sustainable urban development and social cohesion across the nation.
