Introduction 

This report is the fourth in a series of reports providing information on the size, composition, and quality of

the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)-assisted housing stock and the characteristics

of its occupants.1 These reports are intended for the use of policymakers, analysts, and proponents of housing

assistance for low-income households. HUD obtains this information by identifying assisted households that

are also surveyed in the biennial national American Housing Survey (AHS).2

The 2003 data reported here represent assisted households and units in all 50 states and the District of

Columbia, but exclude households and units in Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Virgin Islands, which are not

included in the AHS. The 2003 data are a statistically valid description of assisted households. These data are

available only for the United States as a whole, with simple tabulations for the four census regions. Because of

sample limitations, data are not available for states or smaller areas.

In this report we compare HUD-assisted households with all income-eligible renters using the same AHS

survey data set. Another series of HUD-produced reports and data sets focuses only on assisted households

using information gleaned from administrative records. These reports and databases have been published

under the series title, A Picture of Subsidized Housing, and are posted at http://www.huduser.org/datasets/

assthsg.html.

HUD Rental Assistance Programs

HUD rental housing assistance for low-income families and individuals fall into three basic categories:

1. Conventional public housing (hereafter referred to as public housing).

2. Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers (hereafter referred to as voucher).

3. Privately owned assisted housing (hereafter referred to as privately owned housing).

Public housing consists of housing developments owned by local Public Housing Authorities or Indian

Housing Authorities; HUD makes payments to the authorities to cover the development, rehabilitation, and

and in Appendix B.

operating costs of the housing units. Housing units in these developments are then rented to selected lowincome families and individuals at below-market rents. Because the HUD payments cover the development

and maintenance of the project, public housing is referred to as project based. The amount of rent low-income

families pay is generally a fraction (30 percent) of their income. New tenants can select from vacant and

available units owned and operated by the local authorities. Tenants must live in units owned by the local

housing authority.

The Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program involves selected low-income households searching for

housing units of their choice in the private rental market. After the housing unit is located and approved by

the local housing authority, a subsidy payment is made to the private-sector landlord on behalf of the tenant

household. The program is designed so that the out-of-pocket amount that tenants pay is 30 percent of the

household’s income, if the housing unit rents for less than the Fair Market Rent (FMR) established by HUD for

the area and household size. Families are given the choice of renting units that are more expensive, but tenants

then pay 30 percent of their income plus the difference between the higher rent and the payment standard.

Because the payment is made on behalf of the tenant and the payment follows the tenant household if the

household decides to move, Section 8 housing is referred to as tenant based.

The third program category consists of privately owned projects containing housing units that are rented

to low-income households at subsidized rents. HUD provided assistance to encourage the development of

affordable housing. Because the HUD payments are made for the development and maintenance of the project,

assistance is referred to as project based. The following HUD programs are included in this third category:

rent supplements, Section 221(d)(3) Below Market Interest Rate, Section 202 Supportive Housing for the

Elderly, Section 236 Mortgage Assistance, Section 8 New Construction, Substantial Rehabilitation, Moderate

Rehabilitation, and some other smaller programs. Data on tenants in privately owned housing may not be

altogether comparable with data on public housing tenants or voucher recipients. The public housing and

voucher programs are deeply subsidized, with nearly all tenants paying income-based tenant rents. Only about

three-fourths of the households in privately owned housing pay income-based tenant rents. The other tenants

pay rents that do not vary by income; the project is subsidized through initial financing and the rents are

uniformly reduced for all tenants. As a consequence, about one-fourth of tenants in privately owned housing

may pay differing proportions of their income for rent and also may differ in other characteristics from the

other assisted tenants.

Income-eligible renters are those households that would qualify for admission to assisted housing because

their income is within the HUD-determined income limit of 50 percent or less of median family income for

their area, adjusted for family size. In HUD terminology, these households are “very-low-income renters” and

are eligible for assisted housing based on income alone.

3 Figure 1 shows how the groups relate to one another.

“Worst case needs” means renters who do not receive federal assistance, who have incomes below 50 percent

of median family income in their area, as adjusted by HUD, and who pay more than half their income for

3 All families with incomes below 50 percent of HUD-adjusted median family income generally are eligible for housing assistance.

The number of income-eligible families is a lower bound to the total number of eligible families, since other families with higher

incomes (up to 80 percent of median income) are eligible if they also meet additional (nonincome) criteria. These additional criteria

include being displaced from certain HUD-assisted projects, having been previously assisted, being nonpurchasing tenants in certain

homeownership programs, or meeting public housing agency-specified criteria.

rent and utilities or live in severely substandard housing.4 Reports presenting estimates of worst case needs

households have been submitted to Congress since 1991.5

Readers should be aware that not all housing assistance programs are identified in this report. Other renter

households are receiving housing assistance from U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) programs or state

or local rental assistance programs. Estimates indicate that in fiscal year 2004, about 464,000 units were

available under the Rural Housing Service (formerly known as the Farmers Home Administration) Section 515

Rental Assistance Program. About 264,000 of the available units received deep subsidies under the Section

521 Rental Assistance Program. The report also does not include units available for occupancy under the

Department of Treasury’s Low-Income Housing Tax Credit Program; from 1995 through 2004, nearly 14,000

projects containing 986,000 units were placed in service for low-income households.6 Some of these tax credit

units may also receive HUD or USDA subsidies.

Organization of the Report and Data Tables

This report presents data on assisted households and units at three levels of detail.

Appendix C contains nearly 500 pages of very comprehensive and detailed tables produced by the Census

Bureau. These tables present the most detailed information available. A short statement at the beginning of the

appendix explains its organization.

Section 6 of this report contains five shorter tables that summarize the information in Appendix C. In addition

to condensing the data, these tables contain percentage distributions not found in Appendix C.

Sections 1 through 6 of the report contain short topical tables with accompanying commentary. The structure

of these sections follows the organization of the five summary tables:

• Section 1 and Table 1 summarize the characteristics of householders.

• Section 2 and Table 2 summarize the composition and financial characteristics of households.

4 A unit is severely substandard if it has any of five physical problems: (1) lacks complete plumbing, (2) is uncomfortably cold for

24 hours or more in the winter due to frequent heating equipment breakdowns, (3) has no electricity or three specified electrical

problems, (4) has any five of six serious maintenance problems, and (5) the public areas of the apartment building have four serious

maintenance problems. For more detail, see “Appendix A: Definitions and Questionnaire, American Housing Survey for the United 

States, Current Housing Reports H150,” U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of the Census and U.S. Department of Housing and

Urban Development, Office of Policy Development and Research.

•	 Section 3 and Table 3 summarize the structural characteristics and location of units.

•	 Section 4 and Table 4 summarize the condition of units.

•	 Section 5 and Table 5 summarize tenants’ opinions of their units and neighborhoods.

Each topical table contains information for four categories of low-income renter households so that the characteristics of each of the three HUD-assisted categories can be contrasted with all income-eligible renter households. The five summary tables in Section 6 contain additional renter household categories: all renters; all

assisted renters; unassisted, income-eligible renters with incomes less than 50 percent of area median incomes;

renter households with incomes between 51 percent and 80 percent of area median incomes but not assisted;

and unassisted renters identified as having worst case needs.

Housing Tax Credit Program, and state and local assistance programs.

Source of the Data 

The national AHS collects detailed information on housing units and their occupants every 2 years.

Unfortunately, although this large sample contains many assisted units, it has been impossible to determine

reliably which units are HUD-assisted units.7 In earlier reports, HUD undertook two complementary manual

matching efforts to overcome this difficulty. One involved a manual matching of AHS renter respondents’
5

addresses with a list of addresses HUD developed for public housing and privately owned assisted housing

projects. In the second match, which focused on voucher recipients, Census Bureau data collectors compared

names and addresses of AHS-sampled renters in an area with the records that local housing authorities kept for

voucher recipients.

Since the earlier reports, HUD has developed information on basic tenant demographic and financial

characteristics and limited data on unit characteristics from program administrative records. In particular,

the Public and Indian Housing Information Center (PIC) provides data for the public housing and voucher

programs and the Tenant Rental Assistance Certification System (TRACS) provides data for privately owned

housing. Some differences exist between data from program administrative systems and similar information

from the AHS. PIC and TRACS were designed to be 100-percent reporting systems and not scientific

samples, so, when reporting falls substantially below 100 percent, the results will not be wholly accurate. In

addition, the small samples available for program data from the AHS will result in variability of results. Users,

therefore, should make comparisons across different data systems with great caution.

For this report, specialists at the Census Bureau matched records from the 2003 AHS and the two HUD

administrative record systems using computerized matching algorithms and techniques. These matching

techniques use information on the AHS and HUD records, including first name, last name, date of birth,

detailed addresses (street number, street name, street direction/location (North, South, Northwest, Southeast,

etc.), unit or apartment number, city, state, and ZIP code) to match households. Appendix B contains more

detail on the matching process.

Matching, either manual or computerized, is not an exact process and, in the present case, raises two concerns.

First, did the match of the two microdatabases generate an acceptable level of matches? Second, how well

does the number of cases in HUD’s microdatabase of assisted households compare to estimates of the number

of assisted households from other HUD record systems? For public housing, 306 AHS responses matched

to household records in HUD administrative microdatabase. These AHS-HUD matched responses represent

742,000 public housing tenant households. The matching process resulted in an AHS estimate of public

housing tenants equal to 90 percent of the cases in the microdatabase of HUD administrative records. The

HUD administrative database, on the other hand, includes records for 822,0008 of the 1,094,000 known9

public housing tenants, only 75 percent of all known public housing tenants. Combining the two matching

rates shows that the AHS estimate of public housing tenants is equal to 68 percent of known public housing

tenants. For voucher recipients, the process matched 571 AHS cases with records in the HUD administrative

microdatabase. These 571 sampled cases represent 1,279,000 voucher recipients. The matching process

resulted in an AHS estimate of voucher recipients equal to 80 percent of the cases in the microdatabase of

HUD administrative records. The HUD administrative database included 1,590,000 recipient household

records compared with the 1,800,000 known voucher recipients, only 88 percent of known voucher recipients.

Combining the two matching rates shows that the AHS estimate of voucher recipients is equal to 71 percent

8 Appendix B notes several reasons why the HUD administrative database does not include a record for every public housing tenant

household.

underreporting in PIC and TRACS.

of known voucher recipients. Finally, for privately owned assisted units, the process matched 636 AHS sample

households to administrative records, and these represent 1,329,000 assisted households. The matching

process resulted in an AHS estimate of privately owned assisted units equal to 94 percent of the cases in

the microdatabase of HUD administrative records. The HUD administrative database included 1,416,000

household records compared with the 1,385,000 known tenants in privately owned assisted units, 102 percent

of the number of assisted households.10 Combining the two matching rates shows that the AHS estimate of

privately owned assisted units is equal to 96 percent of known privately owned assisted units.

The AHS estimation weights used to convert sample cases to national estimates were adjusted so that the

matched sample cases produced estimated caseloads that agreed with the number of known households in each

of the programs.11 Weights of unassisted households were also adjusted so that total household estimates agree

with previously published AHS estimates. Details on the weighting procedure are included in Appendix B.

The resulting database was used to produce the tables in Appendix C of this report. As noted earlier, these

detailed tables are the basis of the five summary tables and the topical tables.

10 More records than assisted housing units will be in the database when households leaving the program are not promptly removed

from the database.

11 The weight adjustment factors were defined for 18 subgroups for each of the assistance groups and unassisted households based on

location (nine census divisions) and two age categories (elderly and nonelderly).

Overview

In 2003, 33,604,000 renter households were in the United States. Of those households, 16,577,000, or 49

percent, had incomes low enough to be considered eligible for housing assistance under various HUD subsidy

programs. The proportion of income-eligible renters was higher than the 47 percent reported in 1993 and the

41 percent reported in 1989 but was equal to the 49 percent reported in 1991.

Roughly 4,280,000 households were residing in HUD-assisted rental units in the 50 states and Washington,

D.C., in 2003, up 6 percent from 1993. These assisted households represent 13 percent of total renters and

26 percent of income-eligible renters. These proportions have not changed since 1993. The type of assistance

has shifted away from the two project-based categories (public housing and privately owned housing) to the

tenant-based voucher program. Of the total assisted households, approximately 1,094,000 lived in public

housing units, down 4 percent from 2003; approximately 1,800,000 were receiving assistance through housing

vouchers, up 50 percent from 1993; and approximately 1,385,000 lived in privately owned assisted units under

various other HUD subsidy programs, down 19 percent.

Compared with all income-eligible renters, assisted households are more likely to be minorities, be older, and

have lower levels of education. Assisted households are more likely to be female-headed householders, smaller

in size, have lower incomes, pay lower rents, and have lower rent-to-income ratios than all income-eligible

renters. The housing units occupied by assisted households are more often in multifamily buildings in central

cities and have fewer bedrooms than the units of all income-eligible renters. The structures and the equipment

and services of these units are better than or nearly as good as the housing occupied by all income-eligible

renters. Assisted renters more often reported troublesome neighborhood problems but, nonetheless, rated their

units as high as all income-eligible renters. Recently moved assisted renters say they are better off in their new

units.

Sections 1 and 2 of this report discuss characteristics of householders and households, respectively. These two

terms differ: “householder” refers to the person or one of the persons in whose name the house or apartment

is owned or rented, and “household” refers to all persons occupying a housing unit. Thus, householder 

characteristics refer to a specific person in the unit, whereas household characteristics refer to the occupants

of the unit as a group. Section 3 provides data on the structural characteristics of the housing units occupied

by assisted renters. Section 4 focuses on the conditions of the housing units and the neighborhoods. Finally,

Section 5 presents information on the opinions of the occupants concerning their units.

Section 1. Householder Characteristics

Race and Ethnic Origin of Householder

HUD’s assisted housing programs continue to serve Black householders at a higher rate than their share in the

income-eligible population, particularly in the public housing program. The following table shows the racial

composition of each assistance category. For example, the first column shows that 44 percent of public housing

householders are White alone, 52 percent are Black alone, and the remaining 5 percent are other races or combinations of two or more races. Members of all these racial categories could be Hispanic or non-Hispanic. The

final line of the table shows that 21 percent of public housing tenant householders were Hispanic (of any race).

Across all assistance categories, Black householders are more heavily represented than among all incomeeligible renters. White householders and Hispanic householders, on the other hand, have lower representations

among assisted households than in the universe of income-eligible renters. This pattern is less true for assisted

households in privately owned housing units where the racial/ethnic distribution is nearly the same as for all

income-eligible renters.

Race and Ethnic Origin

HUD-Assisted Renters All IncomeEligible Renters 

(%)

Tenants in Public

Housing (%)

Voucher

Recipients (%)

Tenants in Privately

Owned Housing (%)

White alone 43.8 53.1 62.9 66.4

Black alone 51.7 40.6 30.8 26.8

Other races or multiple races alone 4.5 6.4 6.3 6.8

Hispanic (of any race) 20.7 16.1 16.8 20.9

Compared with their 27-percent representation among all income-eligible renters, Black householders are

nearly twice as common in public housing, with a 52-percent representation, and voucher households are one

and one-half times more common, with a 41-percent representation.

Looking across the three programs, public housing has higher shares of both Blacks and Hispanics than do

the voucher and privately owned housing programs. Blacks account for 52 percent of public housing tenants,

41 percent of voucher recipients, and 31 percent of tenants in privately owned housing units. Hispanics

account for 21 percent of public housing tenants, 16 percent of voucher recipients, and 17 percent of tenants in

privately owned housing units.

The racial/ethnic distribution has changed little from the 1993 report, except that the number of householders

characterizing themselves as Hispanic have increased in general and in each of the assisted categories. They

are still underrepresented, however, based on their share in the income-eligible population, especially in the

voucher and privately owned housing programs. The increase in Hispanics could possibly be an artifact of the

change in questions, response categories, and question placement,12 as well as of the growth of this population

group. Respondents may now select more than one race category, and the Hispanic ethnicity question now

follows the race questions. In addition, Census Bureau population estimates show substantial growth in this

ethnic group. From 2001 to 2005 the estimated number of Hispanic persons increased by 21 percent compared

with a 3-percent increase for non-Hispanic persons.13 The American Housing Survey shows a 1993-to-2003

household growth rate of 67 percent for Hispanics but only 8 percent for non-Hispanics.

Age of Householder

HUD assistance programs serve householders who are older than all income-eligible renters. This tendency

has increased over the 1993-to-2003 period.

13 The population estimates can be found at http://www.census.gov/popest/national/asrh/NC-EST2005-srh.html.

65 or older 28.1% 14.7% 44.6% 19.4%

Median age (years) 49 43 60 41

The median age for householders in privately owned housing is 60 years; for tenants in public housing, it is

49; and for recipients of vouchers, it is 43. All three groups have median ages that are above the median age

of all income-eligible renters, which is 41. The percentage distributions give additional detail. Of tenants

in privately owned housing, nearly 45 percent are age 65 or older compared with 19 percent of the incomeeligible population. Public housing also serves older householders, with 28 percent being age 65 or older.

The voucher program, on the other hand, seems to favor householders that are between 35 and 64 years old.

Younger households (under 35 years old) are underrepresented in all three assistance categories compared with

their overall representation in the income-eligible population.

The age of assisted householders has increased between 1993 and 2003. In 1993, the median age of all assisted

households was 44, 4 years younger than the 2003 median age of 48, but the shift is not uniform. From 1993

to 2003, the median age for public housing householders decreased from 52 to 49 years, but the median ages

for householders in the voucher and privately owned housing programs increased. The median age increased

for voucher householders (from 39 to 43 years) and for those householders in privately owned housing (from

47 to 60 years). The percentage distributions provide more detail on these shifts. The proportion of public

housing tenants older than 65 decreased by 9 percentage points between 1993 and 2003. During this period,

the percentage of younger voucher recipients (under age 35) declined from 43 to 32 percent in the voucher

program and the percentage of younger tenants in the privately owned program decreased from 34 to 24 percent.

Education of Householder

Householders receiving housing assistance have lower levels of educational achievement than all incomeeligible renters, and this pattern has not changed from the 1993 study.

High school graduation (includes 

equivalency) 

29.6 39.2 35.9 31.6

More than high school graduation 17.7 24.5 26.9 32.5

Assisted householders in public housing and privately owned housing are more likely to have terminated their

education at less than 9th grade than are all income-eligible renter householders. Those householders with

less than a 9th-grade education include 16 percent in public housing, 11 percent in the voucher program, and

17 percent of householders in privately owned housing. Only 13 percent of all income-eligible householders

ended their education at that level. On the other side of educational achievement, assisted householders were

less likely to have pursued education beyond high school graduation. Although 33 percent of all incomeeligible householders pursued an education beyond high school, only 18 percent of public housing tenants, 25

percent of voucher recipients, and 27 percent of householders in privately owned housing did so.

Years in Same Unit

Assisted householders tend to stay in their units longer than all income-eligible renters, but changes in the

length of stay between 1993 and 2003 are not consistent across programs. Public housing lengths of stays rose,

but stays of voucher recipients and tenants in privately owned housing fell between 1993 and 2003.

This pattern of longer stays is especially true for public housing tenants, where 16 percent have lived in their

units for more than 13 years compared with 10 percent of all income-eligible renters. On the other side of the

stay continuum, only 45 percent of public housing tenants had been in place for 3 years or less compared with

62 percent of all income-eligible renters. The percentage of voucher recipients is closest to the percentage of

all income-eligible renters, albeit with a higher proportion with stays of 4 to 8 years. Households in privately

owned housing have longer stays than all income-eligible renters, especially in the intermediate categories of 

4 to 8 and 9 to 13 years.

The most dramatic change between 1993 and 2003 occurred among voucher recipients. In 1993, only 37

percent had stayed in the same unit for 3 years or less compared with 60 percent in 2003. Shortening of stay

is also evidenced by the reduction in the fraction of voucher recipients living in their units for 9 to 13 years,

from 42 percent in 1993 to 9 percent in 2003. A less dramatic shortening of stay is present for households in

privately owned assisted housing—most of the shift occurring as a result of the reduction in the fraction of

tenants with stays of 9 to 13 years—from 23 percent in 1993 to 11 percent in 2003. Public housing tenants

were the only group that extended their stays over the decade. This shift is highlighted by the reduction of the

proportion of public housing tenants with short stays (0 to 3 years), from 53 percent in 1993 to 45 percent in

2003.

Section 2. Household Characteristics

Household Composition

Assisted households are less likely to be married-couple families and are more likely to be female-headed

households or females living alone compared with all income-eligible renters.

Male householder 18.6 9.0 18.0 16.9

Female householder 32.4 23.7 41.8 25.0

Nearly 20 percent of all income-eligible renters are married-couple families, but only 10 percent of both

public housing tenants and voucher recipients and 12 percent of tenants in privately owned assisted housing

are married couples. In the income-eligible population, 30 percent of two-or-more-person households are

female-headed households, which compares with 55 percent for voucher recipients, 38 percent for public

housing tenants, and 26 percent for tenants living in privately owned housing. Single females are more

common in privately owned housing, where they make up 42 percent of the tenants compared with 32 percent

of public housing tenants and 24 percent of voucher recipients.

From 1993 to 2003, households shifted away from two-or-more-person households to single-person

households. This shift was especially true for households in privately owned assisted housing where, in 1993,

50 percent were two-or-more-person households compared with 40 percent in 2003. During this period

many owners of these developments “opted out” of the assistance program and converted their buildings to

market-rate rentals. Within two-or-more-person households, the largest decline was posted for female-headed

households, which declined from 34 percent of tenants in privately owned housing in 1993 to only 26 percent

in 2003. Two-or-more-person households represented 73 percent of voucher recipients in 1993 but only 67

percent in 2003. For public housing tenants, two-or-more-person households declined from 54 percent in 1993

to 49 percent in 2003.

Female-headed households account for more than 70 percent of all assisted households—ranging from 68

percent in privately owned housing to 78 percent in the voucher program—which is about 15 percentage

points higher than their representation among all income-eligible renters. The distribution of the types of

female-headed households, however, varies among the assisted programs. The voucher program has the

highest proportion of households consisting of two or more persons (55 percent) compared with 26 percent

in privately owned housing and 38 percent in public housing. One-person; one-person, elderly; and elderly

households are represented most heavily in privately owned housing with 42 percent, 29 percent, and 31
13

percent, respectively. This higher representation of elderly households is at the expense of household units

with two or more persons. Households with two or more persons are well represented in the voucher program,

with 55 percent, and are still the dominant form of female-headed households in the public housing program,

with 38 percent.

Total elderly 15.7 10.7 31.2 12.6

One person, elderly 13.9 8.6 29.1 10.8

Between 1993 and 2003, the proportion of female-headed households in assisted housing increased slightly

(about 2 percentage points), but their representation declined among all income-eligible renters (about 3 percentage points). The decline was most dramatic for elderly households in public housing, declining from 26 percent

in 1993 to 16 percent in 2003. Another significant decline was among two-or-more-person households in privately owned housing, which fell from 34 percent in 1993 to 26 percent in 2003.

Number of Children Under 18 Years Old

In general, assisted households are more likely to have children under 18 (44 percent) than are all incomeeligible renters (41 percent). Privately owned housing has the highest proportion of households without

children, while the voucher program has the lowest proportion. About 72 percent of households in privately

owned housing did not have children under 18, which is much higher than for the other assisted programs:

60 percent for public housing and 43 percent for voucher recipients. The voucher program has the highest

proportion of households with children, with 40 percent for households with one or two children and 17

percent for households with three or more children. Households of voucher recipients are more likely to have

one or two children (40 percent) than are households in the other programs (25 percent for public housing and

22 percent for privately owned housing). Households in privately owned housing are very unlikely to have

three or more children—only 6 percent compared with 16 percent and 17 percent in public housing and the

voucher programs, respectively.

14

In the decade between 1993 and 2003, the proportion of households with children declined for all groups, but

the decline was largest for households in privately owned housing (41 percent in 1993 and 29 percent in 2003).

Again, the shift in the composition of tenants was affected by the substantial number of “opt outs” during this

period.

Number of Persons and Persons per Room

Assisted households are more likely to be one-person households (46 percent) than are all income-eligible

renters (42 percent), especially tenants in public housing (51 percent) and privately owned housing (60 percent).

Household sizes of two to four persons are more common among voucher recipients, at 55 percent, compared with 35 percent for privately owned housing tenants and 38 percent for public housing tenants. Large

households (five or more persons) are rare among occupants of privately owned housing (5 percent), but the

incidence in public housing (11 percent) and in the voucher program (12 percent) is not much different than in

the income-eligible group (11 percent). One reason for the preponderance of one-person households in public housing and privately owned housing is likely because these program categories are more likely to serve

elderly tenants than would the voucher program.

Five or more persons 11.3 12.2 5.3 10.6

Overcrowded 3.8 3.6 2.5 6.4

Overcrowding is less likely in assisted housing. The rates of overcrowding (more than one person per room) in

the assisted program categories are less than 4 percent, but 6 percent of all income-eligible renters are overcrowded.

Over the 10-year period from 1993 to 2003, household size has shifted away from intermediate-sized households (two to four persons) to smaller households. For example, the proportion of households in public housing containing one person increased from 46 to 51 percent, but the proportion of households with two to four

persons declined by nearly the same percentage (43 to 38 percent). The proportions of large households in the

four groups have changed little during that period of time.

Presence of Other Relatives

Households containing relatives other than spouses and own children account for about 17 percent of all assisted households, about the same as the 16 percent among all income-eligible renters (see table 2). Within the

assisted programs, more voucher recipients are likely to have such relatives (22 percent) compared with public

housing tenants (15 percent) and tenants in privately owned housing (11 percent).
15

During the decade between 1993 and 2003, two of these groups shifted. The proportion of public housing

tenants with such relatives declined from 18 to 15 percent, but, among voucher recipients, the proportion

increased from 17 to 22 percent.

Household Income

The median income of assisted households is about $2,600 less than that of all income-eligible renters. Median

income, although lowest for public housing, varies little among the assisted housing groups—$9,900 for public housing tenants, $10,600 for households in privately owned housing, and $10,700 for voucher recipients.

Income for assisted housing tenants is less likely to be from earnings (48 percent) than it is among all incomeeligible tenants (62 percent). Assisted households are more likely to be receiving Social Security income or

pensions, welfare or Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and Food Stamps.

Median household income $9,990 $10,703 $10,581 $13,130

The distribution across sources, however, is different for the three assistance categories. Wages and salaries are

received by 56 percent of voucher recipients compared with 44 percent of public housing tenants and 43 percent of tenants in privately owned housing. Social Security and pensions are received by 47 percent of tenants

in privately owned housing compared with 26 percent and 37 percent for voucher recipients and public housing tenants, respectively. Voucher recipients more frequently receive welfare or SSI (40 percent) than do public

housing tenants (36 percent) or tenants in privately owned housing (21 percent). The pattern is nearly the same

for the receipt of Food Stamps: voucher recipients, 53 percent; public housing tenants, 40 percent; and tenants

in privately owned housing, 30 percent.

Median income grew for all groups between 1993 and 2003; however, the rates were lower for the assisted

groups. The 10-year income growth rate was 38 percent for public housing tenants, 32 percent for voucher recipients, and 26 percent for tenants in privately owned housing; the rate for all income-eligible renters was 43

percent. In comparison, the Consumer Price Index for all urban consumers increased by 27 percent during the

10-year period. Between 1993 and 2003, the trend shifted away from unearned income sources toward wage

and salary income, especially among public housing tenants. In 1993, 29 percent of public housing tenants reported receipts of wage and salary income, which increased to 44 percent in 2003. Receipts of wage and salary

income also increased for voucher recipients, changing from 46 percent in 1993 to 56 percent in 2003.
16

Monthly Housing Costs or Gross Rent

Assisted households paid considerably less in monthly housing costs14 or gross rent than did all income-eligible

renters; however, rents vary considerably, with voucher recipients typically paying more than the other two

assisted groups. The median monthly housing cost for all income-eligible renters was $540 per month in 2003,

for public housing tenants was $227, for tenants in privately owned housing was $312, and for voucher recipients was $437. The higher rents for voucher recipients may be related to the nature of the voucher program.

Voucher recipients have considerable choice about where they live and how much they pay out of pocket for

their housing. In addition, households of voucher recipients tend to be larger, with more than half of the households having two to four persons compared with households in public housing and privately owned housing in

which most households have only one person.

Between 1993 and 2003 the median monthly housing cost increased for all groups. The largest increase was 

55 percent for voucher recipients, followed by 37 percent and 35 percent for tenants in privately owned housing

and public housing, respectively. The median monthly housing cost for all income-eligible renters increased 

44 percent.

Monthly Housing Cost-to-Income Ratios

Housing assistance programs ease the burden of paying monthly housing costs for the recipients. The degree

of burden reduction, however, is not the same for the three assisted groups. The median ratio of housing costs

to income was 45 percent for all income-eligible renters, 27 percent for public housing tenants, 32 percent for

tenants in privately owned housing, and 40 percent for voucher recipients. According to program rules, tenants

should not pay more than 30 percent of their income for rent in the public housing program, thus the 27 percent

reported is compliant with those rules. Similar rules apply to many privately owned housing projects, so the

reported 32 percent is within an acceptable range. The voucher program does not have the same formulaic

relationship between tenant rent and tenant income. The 30-percent target rate is used in calculating the

subsidy, but tenants have the choice of paying more for rent. Recent program changes, however, introduced

an initial burden limit: The household share may not exceed 40 percent of the household’s monthly adjusted

income when the household initially moves into the unit or signs the first assisted lease for a unit.

14 Monthly housing costs for renter-occupied housing units include the contract rent, utilities, property insurance, and mobile home

park fees. For rental units subsidized by a housing authority, the federal government, or state or local government, the monthly rental

costs reflect only the portion paid by the household and not the portion subsidized.

17

The variability and lack of strict adherence to the 30-percent program targets and adherence to the initial

burden limit of 40 percent is of concern for voucher recipients. The 1993 report on HUD-Assisted Renters

addressed problems with rent-to-income ratios.15

The 1993 report focused on the following problems that affect all survey respondents and cause reported

burden estimates to be biased upward:

• Income underreporting.

• Rent overreporting.

• Allocation or imputation of rent and income amounts independently when either or both are not reported

by respondent.

In the public housing program and the privately owned housing program, the tenant makes a single rent

payment, which is the tenant’s contribution. No attempt is made to capture “gross rent” in the AHS and tenants

are unlikely to even know the market rent of the housing units. The voucher program functions under two

rent concepts—“gross rent” and “tenant rent.” The American Housing Survey (AHS) questionnaire attempts

to capture both gross rent and tenant rent for voucher recipients. As a result, two additional types of response

error occur: inaccurately reporting that the unit is subsidized and incorrect reporting of amounts for gross rent

and tenant rent.

If the respondent does not accurately report if the unit is subsidized, the AHS questionnaire and processing

are unable to capture the tenant rent. About 38 percent of the households in the voucher program report that

they are not receiving a subsidy or that they need to verify income. If they say that the unit is not subsidized,

the survey processing system will most likely use gross rent in the calculation of the rent-to-income ratio,

which would result in a reported burden ratio above the true burden ratio. If the respondent correctly reports

receiving a subsidy, he or she might provide the gross rent amount as the response to the tenant rent followup

question, which again would result in an upward bias in the estimated burden ratio.16

Given these response problems, the reader is advised to use the rent-to-income ratio results with caution.

The percentage of assisted households facing burdens or monthly housing costs-to-income ratios of less than

20 percent is considerably higher than that for all income-eligible renters. Among all income-eligible renters, 

7 percent had burden ratios of less than 20 percent. Among public housing tenants, 27 percent have burden

ratios of less than 20 percent; among tenants in privately owned housing, 15 percent; and among voucher

recipients, 10 percent.

Nearly half of all income-eligible renters faced housing cost-to-income ratios of 40 percent or more, but only

17 percent of public housing tenants, 31 percent of tenants in privately owned housing, and 44 percent of

voucher recipients were so heavily burdened.

Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of Policy Development and Research.

16 Since the 2003 survey, the set of questions used to identify assisted households and to collect income data has been revised to

improve reporting. The revision should affect the burden estimates for voucher households.
18

Over the 10-year period, the median ratios increased for three of the four groups. The median ratio for all

income-eligible renters increased from 38 to 45 percent; for voucher recipients, from 32 to 40 percent; and for

tenants in privately owned housing, from 28 to 32 percent. Public housing tenants experienced a decline in the

ratio from 29 to 27 percent.
19

Section 3. Structural Characteristics

Units in Structure

Significant differences exist in the type of housing occupied by assisted households in the voucher program

and those in the project-based programs (both public housing and privately owned housing projects). The

predominant form of rental housing is in multifamily buildings. More than one-third of voucher recipients,

however, live in single-family houses, while only 12 percent of public housing tenants and 4 percent of tenants

in privately owned housing live in single-family units. Of tenants living in large buildings with 50 or more

units, 47 percent are in privately owned housing and 33 percent are in public housing. About 20 percent of

each group live in buildings with 10 to 49 units, between 9 and 24 percent of each group live in buildings

with two to four units, and between 13 and 19 percent of each group live in buildings with five to nine units.

Tenants in privately owned housing are more concentrated in buildings with five or more units and are

underrepresented in single-family houses and small multifamily buildings.

Between 1993 and 2003, there was little difference in the types of structures that voucher recipients occupied.

Compared with public housing tenants in 1993, public housing tenants in 2003 were less likely to live in singlefamily units and more likely to live in small (two to nine units) multifamily structures. Tenants in privately

owned housing shifted away from single-family units toward large (more than 50 units) multifamily structures.

Year Structure Built

Of the three assisted groups, voucher recipients are most likely to live in buildings built in 1990 or later,

but they are also most likely to live in buildings built before 1950. The structure age distribution of voucher

recipients mirrors that of all income-eligible renters. The relative newness of the privately owned housing is

expected because the Section 8 New Construction Program, which is included in privately owned housing, was

active in the late 1970s and the Section 236 program was active in the early 1970s. On the other hand, nearly

60 percent of public housing units were built between 1950 and 1974.

The major shift between 1993 and 2003 reflects the aging of the units in the public housing and privately

owned housing programs.
20

Regional and Metropolitan Location 

Compared with all income-eligible renters, who are more likely to live in the South (33.7 percent), public

housing tenants are more likely to be located in the Northeast (34 percent) and South (38 percent), and tenants

in privately owned housing are more likely to be in the Northeast (27 percent) and Midwest (27 percent). The

geographic distribution of voucher recipients is similar to the distribution of all income-eligible renters.

Between 1993 and 2003, the percentage of tenants in privately owned housing developments in the South

decreased from 36 to 31 percent. Overall, assisted units shifted to the West. But the 1993-to-2003 changes in

other geography-program categories were generally less than 2 percentage points.

Compared with all income-eligible renters, assisted households are more likely to live in central cities. Twothirds of public housing tenants and about half of voucher recipients (47 percent) and tenants in privately

owned housing (53 percent) live in central cities. Public housing tenants are least likely to live in the suburbs

of metropolitan areas. More than one-third of voucher recipients (39 percent) and tenants in privately owned

housing (34 percent) live in suburbs of metropolitan areas compared with 21 percent of public housing tenants.

During the 1993-to-2003 period, assisted housing units have shifted to the suburbs and away from central cities and nonurban areas, especially units for voucher recipients, in which the suburban percentage went from

29 percent in 1993 to 39 percent in 2003.

Bedrooms and Bathrooms

Assisted households tend to live in housing units with fewer bedrooms than all income-eligible renters, except

voucher recipients. Households in privately owned housing have the fewest bedrooms, public housing tenants have the next fewest, and voucher recipients have the most. As indicated in the following table, nearly

60 percent of tenants in privately owned housing have one or fewer bedrooms compared with 45 percent of

public housing tenants and 24 percent of voucher recipients. Very few (13 percent) tenants in privately owned

housing have three or more bedrooms, but 35 percent of voucher recipients and 28 percent of public housing

tenants have units that are that large.

During the 1993-to-2003 period, the distribution of tenants in privately owned housing has moved to fewer

bedrooms and the distribution of voucher recipients has moved to more bedrooms.

Voucher recipients are more likely to have more than one complete bathroom (29 percent) than tenants in privately owned housing (13 percent) and public housing tenants (11 percent).

Between 1993 and 2003, the percentages of public housing units and voucher recipients with more than one

complete bathroom increased 4 percentage points and 12 percentage points, respectively; however, the percentage of tenants in privately owned housing with more than one bathroom declined 5 percentage points.

Section 4. Unit and Neighborhood Conditions

Equipment Problems

Households in assisted housing are slightly more likely to experience equipment breakdowns and water leakages than are all income-eligible renters. Public housing tenants are more likely to experience nonworking

flush toilets (7 percent), public sewage breakdowns (5 percent), and heating equipment breakdowns in the past

winter (5 percent) than are voucher recipients and tenants in privately owned housing. Voucher recipients and

tenants in privately owned housing experienced similar levels of equipment breakdowns, but voucher recipients had a lower incidence of water supply stoppages.

Water leakages from inside the units more likely occurred for tenants in privately owned housing (19 percent)

than for public housing tenants (13 percent) and voucher recipients (9 percent). Although the incidence of

water leakage from outside the structure was less likely overall than for leakage from inside the structure, the

likelihood was highest for voucher recipients.

Generally speaking, equipment problems were less frequent in 2003 than in 1993. Public housing tenants

reported fewer incidences of water supply stoppages, flush toilet breakdowns, blown electric fuses and circuit

breakers, and water leakages in 2003. Tenants in privately owned housing experienced a slightly higher incidence of equipment failure except for a lower incidence of nonworking toilets and water leakages from outside

the structure. Voucher recipients had a lower incidence of equipment failure and water leakage in 2003.

Selected Deficiencies

Taken together, assisted households reported specific deficiencies, such as signs of vermin, holes in walls and

floors, and peeling paint, nearly as often as all income-eligible renters. Generally speaking, tenants of public

housing units were more likely than voucher recipients and privately owned housing tenants to report specific

deficiencies. Tenants in public housing units were slightly more likely to report signs of rodents (12 percent)
23

compared with voucher recipients (10 percent) and tenants in privately owned housing (9 percent). Voucher

recipients reported holes in floors less often than public housing tenants or tenants in privately owned housing.

Tenants of privately owned housing were least likely to report open cracks or holes in the interior (4 percent)

and broken plaster or peeling paint (1 percent).

Between 1993 and 2003, the reported incidence of physical deficiencies declined for all items except holes in

floors. In 2003, voucher recipients and tenants in privately owned housing more often reported signs of rodents.

Severe Physical Problems17

Tenants in assisted housing units, except public housing tenants, did not experience severe physical problems

much more often than all income-eligible renters. The incidence of severe physical problems with plumbing,

heating, electric, upkeep, and hallway conditions was very small for voucher recipients (3 percent) and tenants

in privately owned housing (3 percent) but higher for public housing tenants (5 percent). The most common

problem was with heating, in which about 2 percent of assisted households reported problems with their heat

in the past winter.
24

The incidence of severe physical problems has not changed much between 1993 and 2003, except for the possible

increase in the incidence of plumbing problems among tenants in public housing and privately owned housing.

Moderate Physical Problems

Moderate physical problems were reported by about 5 percent of public housing tenants, 6 percent of voucher

recipients, and 5 percent of privately owned housing tenants. These rates compare with 8 percent of all incomeeligible renters. The moderate problems reported most often, regardless of assistance program, were upkeep

and kitchen.

The incidence of moderate physical problems between 1993 and 2003 improved slightly among public housing

tenants as a result of a decrease in upkeep problems. Two situations worsened—hallway problems reported by

voucher recipients and kitchen problems reported by tenants in privately owned housing.

Neighborhood Conditions

Tenants were asked about the presence of neighborhood problems, whether the problem was bothersome, and

whether the problem was so bothersome that they wanted to move. In particular, they were asked about crime,

street noise or traffic, odors, and “other neighborhood problems,”18 which were included in a catchall category.

In the following table, we show the incidence of neighborhood problems that were considered troublesome by

the tenants. Troublesome neighborhood problems were more often reported by assisted households than by all

18 Other neighborhood problems included noise; litter or housing deterioration; poor city or county services; undesirable commercial,

institutional, and industrial buildings; people; and other.
25

income-eligible renters, with troublesome neighborhood crime reported by public housing tenants contributing to most of the difference. Public housing tenants reported the highest levels of bothersome neighborhood

problems. Bothersome neighborhood crime was reported by 29 percent of public housing tenants, 17 percent

of voucher recipients, and 16 percent of tenants in privately owned housing. Street noise or traffic was reported

as bothersome by 17 percent of public housing tenants, 16 percent of voucher recipients, and 14 percent of

tenants in privately owned housing. Troublesome odors were reported by 14 percent of public housing tenants, while about 6 percent of voucher recipients and tenants in privately owned housing reported troublesome

odors. Troublesome “other problems” were reported by 19 percent of public housing tenants and by 11 percent

of tenants in privately owned housing and 13 percent of voucher recipients. It is not possible to compare 2003

results with 1993 results because the questions were substantially revised.

Section 5. Tenants’ Opinions

Rating of Structure and Neighborhood

When tenants were asked to rate their housing unit structure on a scale of 1 (worst) to 10 (best), a higher

proportion of all three programs of assisted renters (32 to 36 percent) gave their structure a “10” than did all

income-eligible renters (23 percent). Among the assisted renters, public housing tenants were more likely to

give the highest rating (36 percent) than were tenants in privately owned housing (31.9 percent) or voucher

recipients (31 percent). Between 1993 and 2003, the percentage of tenants in privately owned housing giving

the best rating declined from 39 to 32 percent, but the percentage of public housing tenants and voucher

recipients giving the best ratings increased—1 percentage point and 4 percentage points, respectively.

When asked to rate their neighborhood on the same scale, about one in four assisted renters gave their

neighborhood a “10,” which was similar to the share of income-eligible renters who gave their neighborhoods

the best rating. In 2003 the “best” ratings for all three assisted programs and for all income-eligible renters

were nearly identical to the ratings given in 1993.

Recent Movers

The proportion of tenants in each program who were recent movers varied considerably. The percentages of recent movers were lowest for tenants in privately owned housing and public housing: 20 percent and 21 percent,

respectively. The proportion was nearly 24 percent for all assisted tenants. About 28 percent of voucher recipients

and 34 percent of all income-eligible renters were recent movers. The following table shows that for all groups

the most frequently given reason for moving was “other.” The next two most frequent reasons given by public

housing tenants were “wanted lower rent” (19 percent) and “other family/person reason” (16 percent). For

voucher recipients, the reasons given second and third most frequently were “wanted better home” (21 percent)

and “needed larger house or apartment” (21 percent). For tenants in privately owned housing, the reasons

given second and third most frequently were “other family/person related” (17 percent) and “to establish own

household” (15 percent). Overall, the distribution of reasons given did not change materially between 1993

and 2003; however, within groups several major shifts occurred. Public housing tenants offered the answers

“to establish own household” and “needed larger house or apartment” less frequently. Tenants in privately owned

housing more often gave “other” but less frequently gave “to establish own household” as reasons for moving.
27

Recent movers were more satisfied with their new units. More than 62 percent of all assisted households

responded that they had moved to a “better home” and only 13 percent thought they had moved to a “worse

home.”19 Voucher recipients were most satisfied with their moves, with 71 percent saying they moved to a

better home. Both tenants in public housing and in privately owned housing gave a favorable response in most

cases. The proportion of voucher recipients and tenants in privately owned housing giving a favorable response

increased from 1993 to 2003 by 14 percentage points and 9 percentage points, respectively. No change

occurred in the proportion of public housing tenants giving a positive response.

Recent movers more often than not moved to better neighborhoods. The neighborhood question allowed for

a fourth possible response, saying they did not change neighborhoods, and this response was given in about

7 percent of the cases. Nearly 45 percent of recent movers rated their new neighborhoods as better than their

old neighborhoods. Voucher recipients were most positive about their new neighborhoods, with 53 percent

saying their recent move was to a better neighborhood. Public housing tenants were the least satisfied with

their new neighborhoods, with only 31 percent giving the “better neighborhood” response. From 1993 to 2003,

the proportion giving the “better neighborhood” response increased for all tenant groups. Favorable ratings

increased by 4 percentage points for public housing tenants, 8 percentage points for voucher recipients, and 19

percentage points for tenants in privately owned housing.

Appendix A. Sampling Errors

The American Housing Survey (AHS) is a probability sample and all estimates developed from the sample

are subject to sampling error. The sample sizes for the three assisted housing programs are fairly small as

indicated in the following table. The sample design and estimated sampling errors for the AHS are discussed

in Appendix D of any hard-copy AHS report; for example, American Housing Survey for the United States: 

2003. Such reports and other documentation for the American Housing Survey are posted for download at

http://www.census.gov/hhes/www/ahs.html or http://www.huduser.org/datasets/ahs.html.

The following table was developed using the sampling error estimation algorithms and formulas from Appendix D of American Housing Survey for the United States: 2003. The first row contains samples sizes and the

second row contains estimated totals for the three programs. The estimated totals for the three assisted housing

programs are based on U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development administrative records and are

not subject to sampling error, which is evidenced by the “NA” symbols in the third row. The right most entries

show the half-width for estimated 95-percent confidence intervals for the estimated totals for all renters and all

income-eligible renters. For example, the upper bound of the confidence interval on the number of renters is

33,604,000 + 662,000 = 34,266,000, and the lower bound of the confidence interval is 33,604,000 – 662,000 =

32,942,000. The interpretation of this confidence interval is that 95 percent of estimates from similarly selected samples will fall within the interval 32,942,000 to 34,266,000.

In the bottom 12 rows of the table are the confidence interval half-widths for estimated percentages for the

three assisted groups, all renters, and all income-eligible renters. For example, an estimate of 10 percent for

the presence of a characteristic among voucher recipients would have a confidence interval of (10 percent

– 3.0 percent =) 7 percent to (10 percent + 3.0 percent =) 13 percent.

Appendix B. Description of Matching and Sample Weighting

Description of Matching Methodology

Three files of records on tenant households are available from U.S. Department of Housing and Urban

Development (HUD) administrative data. The 2003 HUD Public and Indian Housing Information Center (PIC)

file covers the 12 months ending March 31, 2004. The PIC file contains information about public housing

tenants, voucher recipients, and Section 8 moderate rehabilitation households. There are two HUD Tenant

Rental Assistance Certification System (TRACS) files: one covering the 12 months ending March 31, 2004,

and a second covering the 12 months ending March 31, 2005. The TRACS files contain information about a

number of programs collectively referred to as privately owned subsidized housing.

The 2004 TRACS file is used, despite the fact that it does not overlap the reference period of the 2003

American Housing Survey (AHS), because this data set is the first TRACS data set that includes the exact

street address. Previous versions of the 2004 TRACS file had only the address of the development as a whole.

As noted below, the move-in and move-out dates are examined to screen out renters who were not living in

subsidized housing during the AHS reference period.

The matching proceeded as follows:

• Standardize AHS and HUD addresses with Group 1 Code-1 Plus (a commercially available address

standardizer) and an internal address-parsing algorithm.

• Perform a “proximity” match based on the “closeness” of households of the 2003 AHS-N file (restricted

to occupied renter or no-cash-rent units) to the HUD administrative data file. The match consists of five

“passes” using the following criteria:

1. Person data (name [first name and last name] and date of birth [DOB]) and address data (house

number, street name, city sector [e.g., North, South, Northwest], unit number, city, state, ZIP code).

2. Person data and address data (excluding unit number).

3. Tight match on person, DOB, state. Loose match on ZIP code and house number.

4. Address data (including unit number).

5. Address data (excluding unit number).

• Screen out certain matches.

• Screen out pass 5 voucher matches unless the unit is a single-family home (as indicated by Code-1’s

classification and a lack of unit numbers).

• Screen out pass 3 matches that moved in after the AHS interview date or moved out before the

interview date.

• Screen out voucher pass 4 or 5 matches that moved in after the AHS interview date or moved out

before the interview date. Voucher matches must be more exact because vouchers are tied to the

person, not the housing unit.

• Screen out privately owned subsidized housing pass 4 or 5 matches in which less than 75 percent of

the development’s units are subsidized.

• Screen out or include several cases with ad-hoc edits based on clerical examination of cases.
43

• Choose the best match (lowest pass level) among matches to the three HUD files and across different

people in the household.

Alternately, the matching logic for the different programs can be described as follows:

• Public housing. Subsidies are tied to the unit, not the person. Housing projects contain no unsubsidized

units.

• The algorithm accepts all matches on building-address, even when the unit number does not match

(pass 1, 2, 4, and 5 matches).

• Person-level matches (pass 3 matches) are also accepted, but only when the HUD data indicates that

the person was living in the unit at the time of the interview.

• Privately owned subsidized housing. Subsidies are tied to the development, but housing developments

may contain a mix of subsidized and unsubsidized units.

• The algorithm accepts all matches on name and address, even when the unit number does not match

or is missing (pass 1 and 2 matches).

• Person-level matches (pass 3 matches) are also accepted, but only when the HUD data indicate the

person was living in the unit at the time of the interview.

• Matches on address but not name (pass 4 and 5 matches) are accepted in developments where 75

percent or more of units are subsidized.

• Vouchers. Subsidies are tied to the person, not the unit. Buildings typically will contain a mix of

subsidized and unsubsidized households.

• The algorithm accepts all matches on name and address, even when the unit number does not match

or is missing (pass 1 and 2 matches).

• Person-level matches (pass 3 matches) and matches on unit-level address but not person (pass 4

matches) are also accepted, but only when the HUD data indicate the person was living in the unit at

the time of the interview.

• Matches on building-level address but not person (pass 5 matches), are accepted only when the

building is a single-family home and the HUD data indicate the person was living in the unit at the

time of the interview.

Match Rates and Coverage Rates

Match rates and coverage rates can be calculated by comparing the weighted counts of matching cases in the

AHS to the expected administrative totals. For public housing, 306 AHS households, representing 741,506

households in the country, were matched to HUD administrative data.20 In comparison, HUD estimates that

there were 1,093,998 occupied public housing units, of which 821,874 were recorded individually in the

administrative data used for the match. A difference occurs because not all subsidized households are actually

20 An additional 20 households were matched using an alternative procedure discussed in the following text.
44

reported to HUD by local public housing authorities, due to administrative errors or, in some cases, a lack of

reporting requirements (discussed below).

The match rate is defined by the ratio of the AHS-weighted estimate to the administrative count of households

recorded individually, which is 0.90, or 90 percent, for public housing. The match rate is a measure of the

success of the matching algorithm. The coverage rate is defined as the ratio of the AHS weighted estimate to

HUD’s estimate of the number of occupied housing units, which is 0.68, or 68 percent, for public housing. The

coverage ratio reflects both cases that did not match due to failures of the matching algorithm and also due

to undercoverage of households in the HUD data. The coverage rate is a measure of the overall quality of the

data. It is worth noting that the match rate and the coverage rate are not restricted to be less than 100 percent.

Rates higher than 100 percent could occur if the AHS oversampled or overweighted subsidized households or

if the matching procedure yielded “false positives.”

For privately owned subsidized housing, 636 AHS households were matched to HUD administrative data,

yielding a match rate of 0.94 and a coverage rate of 0.96. The coverage rate is higher than the match rate because the administrative data contain individual reports for more households than are enrolled in the program,

perhaps indicating that data are retained after a household has moved out of subsidized housing. For vouchers, 571 AHS households were matched, yielding a match rate of 0.80 and a coverage rate of 0.71. Table B1

displays the match rates, coverage rates, and underlying data used to calculate them for all three programs.

Public Housing Authorities Not Required To Report Individual Data to HUD

Certain local public housing authorities (PHAs), those participating in the Moving to Work (MTW)

demonstration, were not required to report individual data to the national HUD data system. AHS households

living in public housing or receiving vouchers cannot be matched to the administrative data if they live in these

areas. This issue does not affect the data on privately owned subsidized housing, which is not managed by

local PHAs.
45

For public housing, we were able to partly correct for this undercoverage by adding to the data households

that lived in an MTW area and that were matched to administrative data using clerical means in 1995. This

procedure is expected to be effective because little public housing has been built since 1995 and because 1995

housing units generally appear in the 2003 AHS sample as well (unless demolished in the meantime). This

procedure found an additional 20 AHS households (not recorded in Table B1), representing 35,000 households

in the U.S. population, to be living in public housing. Comparing these 35,000 households to the 98,802 public

housing units not reported to HUD in the MTW areas indicates a coverage rate of 0.35. A similar correction

could not be used for vouchers because, in the voucher program, the subsidy follows the tenant rather than the

housing unit.

Reweighting AHS Data

In addition to the HUD administrative databases (containing records for every tenant household) being used,

other HUD data was used to identify the total number of households in each assisted category broken down

by nine census divisions and two age categories (elderly and nonelderly). This information was needed since

not all tenant households had a record included in the databases for various reasons already noted. The AHS

survey data are reweighted to satisfy two conditions. First, subsidized households are reweighted so the

number of subsidized households adds up to administrative counts of each of three assisted programs and 18

subgroups: (9 divisions) × (2 age groups). Second, unsubsidized households are reweighted to preserve the

original AHS count of each of the 18 subgroups. Hence, there are 72 weighting factors (18×4). It turns out that

the average weighting factor (by which the AHS sample weights are multiplied) is 1.38, the minimum is 0.55,

and the maximum is 4.26. Of the 72 factors, 9 are between 2 and 3 and another 2 are greater than 3.

Methods

HUD made available administrative counts for the three programs of subsidized housing, broken down by the

18 subgroups.21 The AHS data provide analogous survey counts, plus survey counts for unsubsidized renters.22

We want to develop weighting factors that, when multiplied by the survey weights, add up to the administrative

totals. For the unsubsidized group, in which there is no analogous administrative total, the weighting factors

are chosen so the weighted counts within each of the 18 subgroups add up to the original survey counts.

This reweighting can be described more formally. Let sij equal the survey population for the i

th subsidy

type and the j

th subgroup. Let Si equal the vector whose elements are si1

, si2, ..., siJ. Define aij similarly as

the population for each cell of the administrative data, and Ai as the analogous vector. Finally, define the

weighting factors wij, and the vector of weighting factors Wi. When Aj and Sj are known, the weighting factor,

wij, is simply aij/sij. These weighting factors will make the subsidized households add up to the administrative

estimate for their division/age subgroup.

For the unsubsidized group, Si is known, but Ai is not. So, we calculate A1 by solving the equation S = A1 + A2

+ A3 + A4, where S = S1 + S2 + S3 + S4 (the original survey population counts). A1 (the target population counts

for each of the 18 subgroups of unsubsidized renters) is the only unknown, so the solution is trivial. Finally,

the weighting factors are calculated the same way as before (w1j = a1j /s1j ). These weighting factors set a target

population for unsubsidized renters that satisfies the condition that each of the renter subgroups (the sum of

subsidized and unsubsidized households for each of the 18 subgroups) adds up to the original survey count for

that subgroup.

21 HUD calculated the split between elderly and nonelderly in each division by applying a factor that varied only by subsidy type, not

by division. So, for example, the ratio of elderly to nonelderly public housing tenants is the same in each division (and similarly for

tenants in the other two programs of assisted housing).

22 In one division, the < 62 and 62+ age groups were combined due to small sample sizes.

Comparison of the Matched Sample to Subsidized Housing Population

Table B4 presents the administrative data for the matched sample and the full universe of subsidized

households recorded in the administrative data. The main difficulty with this comparison is that the

administrative data items are mainly individual or household characteristics, but we are typically matching

housing units (except in the case of vouchers). To make a valid comparison, several restrictions are made on

the sample. The comparison is made at the household level, rather than the individual level, by restricting

both the matched sample and the population data to householders. This restriction excludes certain matched

households from the sample: those in which the match was to a nonhouseholder, which typically occurs in an

address-only match. A match is less likely because a name match cannot be made when the person recorded in

the HUD data moved in after the AHS interview date or moved out before the AHS interview date. To exclude

most of these unlikely matches, cases that moved in after July 1 of the current year or moved out before

July 1 are excluded from both the matched sample and the population data. The aim is to avoid comparing

household-level data when the match is to the same housing unit but not the same occupants. Finally, Table

B5 implements a more stringent version of these ideas by restricting the matched sample to name matches,

excluding matches made only on address.

Table B4 indicates that the matched sample tends to be a few years older than the subsidized population: on

average, 2.9 years older for public housing and 4.3 years older for privately owned subsidized housing. The

voucher sample is an exception, and the matched sample has a similar average age to the voucher population.

The matched sample tends to have somewhat longer tenure in its unit than the population does. Specifically,

when matched with the voucher population, matched voucher recipients have 0.5 more years of tenure on

average, are 3 percentage points less likely to have moved in within 2 years, and are 3 percentage points

more likely to have tenure of more than 8 years. Those tenants in privately owned subsidized housing are

5 percentage points more likely to have more than 8 years of tenure than all households in privately owned

housing. Income is consistently several hundred dollars higher in the matched sample than in the subsidized

population, although only the difference for privately owned subsidized housing is statistically significant.23

The matched sample is representative along the dimensions of sex, race, and ethnicity.

The more stringent restrictions on the sample of Table A5 (to name matches only) reduce these differences

but do not eliminate them. Some scattered differences in age and tenure remain statistically significant, but

there are fewer differences. Unexpectedly, the difference in the percent who are Black householders becomes

significant in this table, with the public housing matched sample having 7 percentage points more Black

householders and the privately owned subsidized matched sample having 4 percentage points fewer Blacks.

The higher incomes of matched households become more pronounced, with the matched samples for both

public housing and privately owned subsidized housing having incomes slightly more than $1,000 higher.

Overall, it appears that some bias exists in the matching procedure. More stable households—those with older

heads, longer tenure, and higher incomes—are more likely to match than are unstable households. These

differences or possible biases, however, are fairly small. It is highly unlikely that the population/sample differences

lead to larger biases than would using survey reports of subsidized housing status, as documented in Table B6.

23 The probability values for the difference in mean income are p = 0.25, 0.28, and 0.07 for public housing, vouchers, and privately

owned subsidized housing, respectively.

Appendix C. Detailed Tables

The Census Bureau produced the detailed tables presented in this appendix; the tables contain all the data

available from the match of the American Housing Survey (AHS) to the households receiving rental assistance

from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. There are nine sets of tables, one for each of

the following groups:

1. All assisted households.

2. Public housing tenants.

3. Voucher recipients.

4. Tenants in privately owned assisted housing units.

5. Eligible (income at or below 50 percent of area median) but not subsidized households.

6. Households with incomes between 51 percent and 80 percent of area median incomes but not assisted.

7. Total renters.

8. Worst case needs households.

9. All income-eligible renters.

For each of these nine groups is a set of 21 data tables (the same set used in the regular AHS printed reports

for renter households). The tables are for the following sets of characteristics:

1. Introductory Characteristics.

2. Height and Condition of Building.

3. Size of Unit and Lot.

4. Selected Equipment and Plumbing.

2Because Hispanics may be of any race, data can overlap slightly with other groups. Most Hispanics report themselves as White, but some report themselves as Black or in other categories.


3For manufactured/mobile homes, oldest category is 1939 or earlier.


4Figures may not add to total because more than one category may apply to a unit.


5Beginning with 1989, this item uses current income in its calculation, see Appendix A.


6May reflect a temporary situation, living off savings, or response error.

3For manufactured/mobile homes, oldest category is 1939 or earlier.


4Figures may not add to total because more than one category may apply to a unit.


5Beginning with 1989, this item uses current income in its calculation, see Appendix A.


6May reflect a temporary situation, living off savings, or response error.

2Because Hispanics may be of any race, data can overlap slightly with other groups. Most Hispanics report themselves as White, but some report themselves as Black or in other categories.


3For manufactured/mobile homes, oldest category is 1939 or earlier.


4Figures may not add to total because more than one category may apply to a unit.


5Beginning with 1989, this item uses current income in its calculation, see Appendix A.


6May reflect a temporary situation, living off savings, or response error.
