Public housing authorities in South Dakota are getting $1.7 million in federal funding to improve their properties.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development says the money is going to 26 housing authorities across the state, including in Sioux Falls, Pierre and Pennington County.

The money is through HUD's Capital Fund Program, which gives money each year to about 3,100 public housing authorities across the country.
