Connecting the Dots: A Location Analysis of USDA’s Section 515 Rental Housing and Other Federally Subsidized Rental Properties in Rural Areas
The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Section 515 program provides more than 400,000 decent, affordable rental homes for rural Americans with low incomes, but many of these rentals are now at risk. Connecting the Dots seeks to inform the debate on preservation of these units. This Housing Assistance Council report examines where Section 515 developments are located with respect to other federally subsidized rentals and reviews their role in their rural communities’ rental housing networks. It discusses the policy implications of HAC’s research findings and makes recommendations.
