United House Apartments

United House Apartments in Scranton, Pennsylvania is a HUD-subsidized independent-living complex for income-qualified adults age 55 and older and some individuals with disabilities. The three-building site offers one- and two-bedroom senior apartments with features such as controlled entry, elevators, a community room, on-site laundry, off-street parking and 24-hour emergency maintenance; a 2022 rehabilitation updated roofs, windows, HVAC, kitchens, bathrooms and ADA features.

Onsite staff focus on housing management, maintenance and custodial services; the property does not operate as a licensed assisted-living or skilled-nursing facility and does not employ nurses, medication aides or dietary staff. Residents arrange personal care, home health or therapy from outside providers if needed, and the buildings are designed to support independent evacuation rather than hands-on mobility assistance.
