Learn about government programs that help low-income people find affordable rental housing. Each of the programs - subsidized housing, public housing, and housing choice vouchers - is different. Get the details on how they work, who is eligible, and how to apply.
Almost two years of pandemic have passed and the affordable housing crisis has only gotten worse. The U.S. now faces a shortage of 6.8 million rental homes affordable and available to extremely low-income renters whose household incomes are at or below 30 percent of their area’s median income, according to a National Low-Income Housing Coalition analysis.
One of the main challenges of 2021 was closing the gap between the increasing demand for affordable residential options and the resources available for private developers to create and preserve safe, quality affordable and workforce housing.

“Just about every aspect of affordable housing has been impacted by the pandemic,” Jaeger said.
No state has enough affordable housing supply for extremely low-income renters and the COVID-19 outbreak only exacerbated the already immense need for affordable homes throughout the country.

“Monthly income changes meant income verification was more complex. There was also some confusion caused by the eviction moratorium. The worry is that if these residents get removed from the program, they may not ever qualify again, given the demand and size of wait lists across our markets,” Jack Sipes, partner & senior vice president of property management at Dominium, told MHN.
Fighting the supply shortage
The supply-demand imbalance has only increased in the past year. The affordable housing units being built or added to the affordable inventory are simply outnumbered by the growing need.
“Frankly, there’s not enough housing. Period. And that lack of supply puts immense pressure on the market,”
