The following is a list of public housing estates in Wong Tai Sin, Kowloon, Hong Kong including Home Ownership Scheme (HOS), Private Sector Participation Scheme (PSPS), Sandwich Class Housing Scheme (SCHS), Flat-for-Sale Scheme (FFSS), and Tenants Purchase Scheme (TPS) estates.

Lok Fu, Wong Tai Sin, Wang Tau Hom, and Tung Tau were home to a large number of public housing blocks built in the 1950s and 1960s to provide accommodation to Hong Kong's burgeoning population of refugee migrants. This type of housing, built in haste with limited resources, was rudimentary. The flats were no more than single rooms and families on each floor shared toilet and bathing facilities. In the 1980s there was a push to redevelop the first generation of estates so that each family was housed in a self-contained flat. By the late 1980s much of the area had been rebuilt.

Chuk Yuen Estate (Chinese: 竹園邨) is a public housing estate in Wong Tai Sin and underneath Lion Rock. It is divided into Chuk Yuen (North) Estate (Chinese: 竹園(北)邨) and Chuk Yuen (South) Estate (Chinese: 竹園(南)邨). The two estates has 8 blocks respectively, and all the blocks were built in the 1980s. In 1999, some of the flats were sold to tenants through Tenants Purchase Scheme Phase 2.
