HUD recently announced that it will cover expanded housing and neighborhood choices for more than 800,000 total households using Housing Choice Vouchers to find and secure affordable housing. PHAs in an additional 41 metropolitan areas that cover more than 440,000 housing vouchers will now be required to use Small Area Fair Market Rents (SAFMR) under HUD’s 2016 Small Area Fair Market Rent Final Rule when setting the maximum rent that Housing Choice Vouchers will cover, instead of setting rent maximums for the entire metropolitan area.
