Federal housing, also called Section 8 or subsidized housing, refers to rental properties that are offered at an affordable cost to those that qualify. Federal housing programs were put in place by the United States federal government to ensure that citizens can obtain housing that is deemed affordable according to their income. Housing is considered affordable when the price of the property does not cost a family over 30% of their total income, even when considering the cost of utilities and taxes when applicable. Families that struggle to pay their bills and cannot seem to find housing that coincides with their budget may qualify for federal housing. Federal housing, or section 8 housing, is a program that ensures that a family will only spend 30% of their income on rent. If their rent is higher than 30% of their income, they will receive a section 8 voucher that will cover the additional cost. To find out if you qualify for federal housing, it will be necessary to apply for housing with the Department of Housing and Urban Development, or HUD, through a local housing authority. The application process will determine whether you are eligible to receive federal housing due to your income, the average income in your area, and any assets you may have. To qualify for federal housing, an applicant must make less than 50% of the average income earned by those in their area. However, housing agencies must award at least 75% of the allotted federal housing to families that make less than 30% of the average income earned by other families in the area. Because there is not an unlimited amount of federal housing, some families will have to wait to receive aid. However, if a family is currently renting a home that is considered substandard, is homeless, or spends over 50% of their income on rent, they will take priority over other wait-listed families. Once a family has been approved to receive federal housing, they may then begin searching for an apartment or home to rent that accepts section 8 vouchers. While the process of obtaining section 8 housing may be lengthy, federal housing helps families live more comfortably in housing that is well within their means.
