Fortunately, we can provide some helpful statistics using HUD's 2023 Picture of Subsidized Households. The following data describes the economic and demographic characteristics of renters who have a Section or project-based voucher issued by Northwest Oregon Housing Authority.

How many renters have a Section 8 voucher with Northwest Oregon Housing Authority?

The time it takes to transfer voucher funding from one recipient to another can be many months. Managing the Section 8 waiting list, qualifying new voucher holders, and approving new homes or apartments takes time. In addition, in some areas, there is an extreme housing shortage or landlords may refuse to rent to persons using a Section 8 voucher to pay their rent. This results in longer than usual ramp-up times for new voucher holders.

The Northwest Oregon Housing Authority Section 8 HCV program that this waiting list covers had 88% of its vouchers utilized by households with 12% unutilized at the start of 2024. This means that 147 Section 8 vouchers out of a total of 1,224 were in processing at the time HUD reported the data.
