Section 8 Moderate Rehabilitation Single Room Occupancy — CFDA 14.249

Section 8 SRO dollars on 272 award records

Assistance listing 14.249 is titled SECTION 8 MODERATE REHABILITATION SINGLE ROOM OCCUPANCY in the USAspending.gov files this site indexes. The obligation total on that code is $1,069,277,195. An obligation is a recorded federal commitment on an award. It is not an outlay. Treating $1.07B as rent already paid on SRO rooms mixes two series. SpendingVault keeps the label as obligations.

272 awards sit under that dollar book. Dividing $1,069,277,195 by 272 produces a mean near $3.93 million per award record. That quotient is derived from the two packet totals. It is not a typical HAP contract size and not a cost per unit. Moderate-rehabilitation SRO dollars often sit on multi-year housing assistance actions, which is why 272 records can carry $1.07B without implying 272 buildings.

133 recipients in 42 states, not a national unit map

CFDA 14.249 lists 133 recipients and 42 states against 272 awards. Recipient count is not unique tenants. It is how many organizational recipients the assistance extract stores for this listing. A public housing agency or owner entity can appear on more than one award; 133 is not a census of SRO operators. The 42-state span is narrower than many assistance listings: coded geography does not cover every jurisdiction.

272 awards against 133 recipients averages about two award records per recipient. Extra modifications can lift the 272 tally without moving $1,069,277,195 much. The 14.249 hub keeps dollars, awards, recipients, and states visible so one statistic is not inferred from another. Missing states in the 42-count are a coding fact, not a claim that SRO housing is absent there.

Obligations versus housing-assistance outlays

USAspending.gov publishes obligations on assistance awards. The $1,069,277,195 figure for CFDA 14.249 can include multi-year rental commitments that will disburse later. A voucher utilization report, a unit-count PIC extract, and a Treasury outlay series are different publications. This page does not translate the obligation total into those series.

If a number you expected is missing, the usual cause is a different reporting concept. Start from the obligation definition, then open the 14.249 program page. Do not stretch 272 awards or 133 recipients to cover every Section 8 dollar that touches single-room occupancy.

What the 14.249 tables omit

The Section 8 Moderate Rehabilitation SRO hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a tenant roster, not a unit-quality inspection file, and not a waiting-list snapshot. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $1,069,277,195. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 272 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 42 states is a coding field. A PHA coded to one cell can dominate geography while units sit in many counties. Read the program page before any state split.

How to cite CFDA 14.249

A complete citation is $1,069,277,195 in obligations for CFDA 14.249, covering 272 awards, 133 recipients, and 42 states, drawn from USAspending.gov assistance awards on SpendingVault. Name the series as obligations. If the question is geographic coverage rather than dollars, lead with 42 states and 133 recipients, then the $1.07B total.

Start with the Section 8 Moderate Rehabilitation Single Room Occupancy program page, then the all-programs index. Agency pages show awarding organizations; they do not replace this listing’s obligation total. Nothing here is a housing-application instruction.

A worked reading of the 14.249 extract

Start from the four packet facts: $1,069,277,195, 272 awards, 133 recipients, and 42 states under CFDA 14.249. The mean near $3.93 million is a quotient from a modest award count, not a typical SRO contract. If a later USAspending.gov file adds large HAP actions, dollars can jump while 133 recipients barely move. If modifications proliferate, 272 can rise while the dollar book stays close to $1.07B.

Nothing in the extract splits moderate rehabilitation from other Section 8 accounts, or occupancy from rehab. Those cuts live outside this packet. Treat CFDA 14.249 as an assistance-listing tag on USAspending.gov award files. Open the program page, then the all-programs index, for a same-series ranking. Cite 272 awards and 42 states next to the dollars so the limited geography is visible.

Questions

How much is obligated under Section 8 Moderate Rehabilitation SRO?

USAspending.gov assistance awards indexed on SpendingVault show $1,069,277,195 in obligations for CFDA 14.249, Section 8 Moderate Rehabilitation Single Room Occupancy. That sum is an obligation total, not a Treasury outlay total and not a count of SRO units. The same extract lists 272 awards, 133 recipients, and 42 states.

Why does CFDA 14.249 show only 42 states?

The indexed geographic count is 42 states against 272 awards and 133 recipients.

The $1,069,277,195 obligation total still sits on those 272 award rows. Missing states are a file fact, not a housing census.

Does the $1.07B total include rent already paid to owners?

Not as a cash-paid sum. USAspending reports obligations—commitments to pay—rather than outlays. The $1,069,277,195 figure can include amounts that will disburse later. The 272-award count is a record tally, not a count of monthly HAP payments. Cite CFDA 14.249 with the obligation total from USAspending.gov assistance awards, not an outlay series.
