76% of Low-Income Renters Needing Federal Rental Assistance Don't Receive It [1]

[]

Date: 2023-08

Note: Groups of household types are sized (on left) by number "needing assistance," which means they pay more than 30 percent of monthly income on housing and/or are living in overcrowded or substandard housing. "Low income" = 80 percent or less of median income. For more on how we count assisted renters, please see our federal rental assistance factsheets methodology.
