Since 1917, the Workers' Housing Association has created good and safe homes for the citizens of Esbjerg.

The Workers' Housing Association is an independent housing organization that works to offer good homes for everyone at a reasonable rent. With homes in various sizes and layouts, the association caters to students, singles, families, and seniors. The property caretakers ensure that the homes are well-maintained and up-to-date, and that the outdoor areas are inviting and safe communal spaces.
The association is built on values such as honesty and respect. The homes form the framework for a diverse community where safety, cohesion, and good neighborliness are the focus.
"As a local company, our roots in the local community have always been an important part of our identity."
The Workers' Housing Association has a strong tradition of engaging in its local environment. The association cherishes its local ties and regularly organizes joint activities for residents to strengthen community and cohesion.
Resident democracy and influence
The residents of the Workers' Housing Association are part of the resident democracy and have co-determination over decisions made in the housing department. They can influence the department's future, including modernizations and rules of conduct.
Every year, the department board invites residents to department meetings where important decisions about budgets and improvements are made. Members of the department board are also elected here – a position all residents can run for.
