Approximately 90% of families on the program earn less than 30% of the median income, which is $40,650 per year for a family of four (4). Participants’ incomes come from a variety of sources, as illustrated in Chart 6. A total of 33% of participating families have income from employment. Participating families pay a portion of their monthly rent based upon their income and the payment standard for their unit. The Housing Authority pays the difference between the tenant’s portion and the contract rent. This payment is the Housing Assistance Payment (HAP). The average HAP for April 1, 2022 to June 30, 2022 was $1,362.
