The Metro Community Housing Cooperative is a community based Housing Association, which commenced in 2007 when the Marrickville Area Community Housing Cooperative and Resaman (Men's Housing) merged to form Metro Community Housing Cooperative (MCHC).

Metro is primarily funded by the Office of Community Housing - this is a section of the NSW Department of Housing.

The organisation is incorporated as an independent, non-profit, co-operative of members.

In addition to being a fully accredited housing association, the organisation is registered by the Registrar of Community Housing as a Class 2 Housing (Small-Medium) Provider.

Our Mission Statement

  • By assisting to provide housing and offer related resources to the people of the Inner West area of Sydney who are in high need.
  • By providing a range of self managed, affordable, quality, secure housing
  • By linking up with other housing and community service providers through participation in the housing sector and broader political process
