In 2023, Alaska recorded the highest annual average household income of public housing residents in the United States. The annual average income of government-subsidized housing in Alaska had an annual income of more than ****** U.S. dollars, much higher than the national average of ****** U.S. dollars. Additionally, California and New York were among the states where residents earned notably higher, both states exceeding ****** U.S. dollars. On the other end of the spectrum, Puerto Rico had the lowest average public household income, amounting to just ***** U.S. dollars.

In accordance with 24 CFR Part 92.252, HUD provides maximum HOME rent limits. The maximum HOME rents are the lesser of: The fair market rent for existing housing for comparable units in the area as established by HUD under 24 CFR 888.111 or A rent that does not exceed 30 percent of the adjusted income of a family whose annual income equals 65 percent of the median income for the area, as determined by HUD, with adjustments for number of bedrooms in the unit. The HOME rent limits provided by HUD will include average occupancy per unit and adjusted income assumptions.

Thumbnail image by Tony Moody.This dataset includes all housing developments approved by the City of Boise’s (“city”) Planning Division since 2020 that are known by the city to have received or are expected to receive support or incentives from a government entity. Each row represents one development. Data may be unavailable for some projects and details are subject to change until construction is complete. Addresses are excluded for projects with fewer than five homes for privacy reasons.

The dataset includes details on the number of “homes” in a development. We use the word "home" to refer to any single unit of housing regardless of size, type, or whether it is rented or owned. For example, a building with 40 apartments counts as 40 homes, and a single detached house counts as one home.

The dataset includes details about the phase of each project. The process for build a new development is as follows: First, one must receive approval from the city’s Planning Division, which is also known as being “entitled.” Next, one must apply for and receive a permit from the city’s Building Division before beginning construction. Finally, once construction is complete and all city inspections have been passed, the building can be occupied.

The dataset also includes data on the affordability level of each development. To receive a government incentive, a developer is typically required to rent or sell a specified number of homes to households that have an income below limits set by the government and their housing cost must not exceed 30% of their income. The federal government determines income limits based on a standard called “area median income.” The city considers housing affordable if is targeted to households earning at or below 80% of the area median income. For a three-person household in Boise, that equates to an annual income of $60,650 and monthly rent or mortgage of $1,516. See Boise Income Guidelines for more details.Project Address(es) – Includes all addresses that are included as part of the development project.Address – The primary address for the development.Parcel Number(s) – The identification code for all parcels of land included in the development.Acreage – The number of acres for the parcel(s) included in the project.Planning Permit Number – The identification code for all permits the development has received from the Planning Division for the City of Boise.

This field identifies whether a development contributes to one of those goals.Project Phase - The process for build a new development is as follows: First, one must receive approval from the city’s Planning Division, which is also known as being “entitled.” Next, one must apply for and receive a permit from the city’s Building Division before beginning construction. Finally, once construction is complete and all city inspections have been passed, the building can be occupied.

California State Income Limits reflect updated median income and household income levels for acutely low-, extremely low-, very low-, low- and moderate-income households for California’s 58 counties (required by Health and Safety Code Section 50093). These income limits apply to State and local affordable housing programs statutorily linked to HUD income limits and differ from income limits applicable to other specific federal, State, or local programs.

In 2023, public housing residents in Alaska, Arkansas, and the U.S. Virgin Islands had the highest household incomes compared to their respective local median incomes in the United States. In these areas, the average public housing household incomes constituted at least ** percent of the local median income. In contrast, states like Maryland, Ohio, Washington, Guam, and the District of Columbia exhibited the lowest proportions, where households housed in social housing earned less than ** percent of the local median income.

This web map shows the potential relationship between Esri's housing affordability index (HAI) and median household income in the United States for CBSA metropolitan and micropolitan statistical areas. It also shows Total Household Growth between 2010-2018. The data can be used to determine the impact between income earned in relationship to housing affordability.

This dataset measures the number of owner & renter occupied units in each locality where monthly housing costs exceed 30% of household income. The data is also broken down by ranges of annual household income.

This layer shows housing costs as a percentage of household income. This is shown by tract, county, and state boundaries. This service is updated annually to contain the most currently released American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year data, and contains estimates and margins of error. There are also additional calculated attributes related to this topic, which can be mapped or used within analysis. Income is based on earnings in past 12 months of survey. This layer is symbolized to show the percent of renter households that spend 30.0% or more of their household income on gross rent (contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities). To see the full list of attributes available in this service, go to the "Data" tab, and choose "Fields" at the top right.

Please cite the Census and ACS when using this data.Data Note from the Census:Data are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a margin of error. The value shown here is the 90 percent margin of error. The margin of error can be interpreted as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value. In addition to sampling variability, the ACS estimates are subject to nonsampling error (for a discussion of nonsampling variability, see Accuracy of the Data). The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these tables.Data Processing Notes:This layer is updated automatically when the most current vintage of ACS data is released each year, usually in December. The layer always contains the latest available ACS 5-year estimates. It is updated annually within days of the Census Bureau's release schedule.

Boundaries are updated at the same time as the data updates (annually), and the boundary vintage appropriately matches the data vintage as specified by the Census. These are Census boundaries with water and/or coastlines erased for cartographic and mapping purposes. For census tracts, the water cutouts are derived from a subset of the 2020 Areal Hydrography boundaries offered by TIGER. Water bodies and rivers which are 50 million square meters or larger (mid to large sized water bodies) are erased from the tract level boundaries, as well as additional important features. For state and county boundaries, the water and coastlines are derived from the coastlines of the 2023 500k TIGER Cartographic Boundary Shapefiles. These are erased to more accurately portray the coastlines and Great Lakes. The original AWATER and ALAND fields are still available as attributes within the data table (units are square meters).The States layer contains 52 records - all US states, Washington D.C., and Puerto RicoCensus tracts with no population that occur in areas of water, such as oceans, are removed from this data service (Census Tracts beginning with 99).Percentages and derived counts, and associated margins of error, are calculated values (that can be identified by the "_calc_" stub in the field name), and abide by the specifications defined by the American Community Survey.Field alias names were created based on the Table Shells file available from the American Community Survey Summary File Documentation page.Negative values (e.g., -4444...) have been set to null, with the exception of -5555... which has been set to zero.

Graph and download economic data for Expenditures: Housing by Income Before Taxes: $30,000 to $39,999 (CXUHOUSINGLB0207M) from 1984 to 2023 about tax, expenditures, income, housing, and USA.

Approximately 42.5 percent of residents in renter-occupied housing units in the United States paid gross rent which exceeded 35 percent of their income in 2023. In comparison, about 12.3 percent paid less than 15 percent of their gross household income.

This statistic shows the share of households who spent half or more of their income on housing in the United States in 2019, by income level. In 2019, 52.8 percent of households who earned between 10,000 and 20,000 U.S. dollars annually spent fifty percent or more of their income on housing costs, whereas only 1.5 percent of households with annual incomes between 75,000 and 100,000 U.S. dollars did the same.

This is the Housing Department's 2024 Annual Report. It looks at the year's efforts to expand affordable housing opportunities for low-income households, create income-restricted housing, bring more permanent supportive housing (PSH) units online, and connect the community to housing resources.

This indicator is defined as the ratio of the average house price (detached, semi-detached, terraced, flat/maisonette) in a local authority to the average, gross, full time annual earnings in a local authority. The purpose of this indicator is to monitor progress towards improving housing opportunities and affordable housing. It measures the relationship between average full time earnings and average house prices within an area and therefore provides an indication of how affordable housing is in that area. The ratio using residence based earnings information measures how affordable housing is for those living in the area, the indicator using workplace earnings information measures how affordable local housing is for those working in the area. The two together provide a picture of the different circumstances of those living or working in an area. Monitored over time this indicator will measure how quickly housing costs are increasing relative to the increase in average earnings. The indicator has limitations as it does not measure the affordability of privately rented or social housing. In addition, it only measures the income of people working full time and excludes part time workers, those who are self-employed and those claiming benefits. Information on those claiming benefits are measured by indicators 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.6 in the local basket of inequalities indicators. Nevertheless this indicator provides an indication of the overall housing opportunities in an area. This indicator has been discontinued and so there will be no further updates.

​ ​​​​FHFA is required to monitor and report annually on the Federal Home Loan Banks' support of their low-income housing and community development activities to the Federal Home Loan Banks' Advisory Councils. This report fulfills that requirement. This report addresses the FHLBanks’ activities to support low-income housing and community development. The FHLBanks support a range of these activities through three programs: the statutorily-mandated Affordable Housing Program (AHP), the statutorily-mandated Community Investment Program (CIP), and the voluntary Community Investment Cash Advance Program (CICA). Under these programs, the FHLBanks provide loans (referred to as advances) and grants to their members, and their members then use these funds to assist very low- and low- or moderate-income households and communities. The report also covers FHLBank Community Support Programs, non-depository Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) membership, and FHLBank performance on housing goals. ​
