Quarterly Report for Housing Choice Voucher Program <br />August 1, 2023 <br />Page 3 <br />3 <br />6 <br />2 <br />5 <br />Chart 5 depicts participants by percentage of Orange <br />County median income. As of June 30, 2023, the <br />County’s median income is $127,800 per year for a family <br />of four. <br />Approximately 90% of families on the program earn less <br />than 30% of the area median income, which is $43,050 <br />per year for a family of four (4). <br />Participants’ incomes come from a variety of sources, <br />as illustrated in Chart 6. A total of 36% of participating <br />families have income from employment. <br />Participating families pay a portion of their monthly rent <br />based upon their income and the payment standard for <br />their unit. The Housing Authority pays the difference <br />between the tenant’s portion and the contract <br />rent. This payment is the Housing Assistance <br />Payment (HAP). The average HAP for April 1, 2023 to <br />June 30, 2023 was $1,420. <br />Production <br />HQS Inspections: At least once every two (2) years, <br />the Housing Authority must inspect each assisted-unit <br />to ensure it meets HUD’s Housing Quality Standards <br />(HQS) in compliance with the federal regulations. From <br />April 1, 2023 to June 30, 2023, a total of 410 inspections <br />and re-inspections of our assisted-units were <br />performed, of which 110 inspections failed. Chart 7 <br />illustrates the number of inspections performed on a <br />monthly basis during the reporting period. <br />121 137 152 <br />0 <br />100 <br />200 <br />April May June <br />7.
