English

Proper noun

FHA

  1. (US) Initialism of Federal Housing Administration.
    • 2016 June 9, Nikole Hannah-Jones, “Choosing a School for My Daughter in a Segregated City”, in The New York Times Magazine:
      White residents used Federal Housing Administration-insured loans to buy their way out of the projects and to move to shiny new middle-class subdivisions. [] The F.H.A.’s explicitly racist underwriting standards, which rated black and integrated neighborhoods as uninsurable, made federally insured home loans largely unavailable to black home seekers.
