About This Program in New York
In New York City, the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program is administered by NYCHA, HPD, and HCR, and NYCHA also operates the city's public housing. Rent in public housing and with a voucher is income-based — generally about 30% of adjusted household income.
How to Apply in New York
