Dutch social housing organisations are private, non-profit enterprises that pursue social goals within a strict framework of national laws and regulations. They involve local government, tenants and other stakeholders in their policies and are accountable to society.

The principal target group are low-income households (e.g. families with an income below 29,000 Euros / year). The cheaper rented housing is intended primarily for this group, which gets housing benefits from the government.
