Housing Trust Fund — CFDA 14.275

$658.9M in federal obligations is indexed on USAspending.gov for the Housing Trust Fund (CFDA 14.275). The listing carries 146 awards, 56 recipients, and a 55-jurisdiction geographic count. Those dollars are assistance obligations, not Treasury outlays and not a count of units built, rents restricted, or households housed. One hundred forty-six awards against 56 named organizations is a state-and-territory formula file, not a project-by-project developer roster.

Key figures

  • CFDA 14.275 shows $658.9M in USAspending obligations for the Housing Trust Fund.
  • The listing covers 146 awards and 56 recipients.
  • Awards are coded to 55 jurisdictions in the USAspending geographic count.
  • Totals are obligations, not outlays or unit counts.

Housing Trust Fund obligations at $658.9M

USAspending.gov records $658,864,641.40 in obligations under CFDA 14.275. One hundred forty-six awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $4.51 million per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical allocation invoice and not a cost per affordable unit.

The assistance-listing title is HOUSING TRUST FUND. CFDA 14.275 is the identifier. Other HUD rental, HOME, or public-housing listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $658.9M. Combining those codes would invent a combined affordable-housing total this packet does not contain.

56 recipients and 146 award rows

Fifty-six recipients share 146 awards, or about 2.6 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $658,864,641.40 evenly would assign about $11.77 million per recipient. That density is a formula-grantee pattern: a headcount that tracks states and territories, each carrying a few assistance rows. The packet does not list the 56. Recipient count is the organizational headcount on the federal extract, not a census of developers or tenants.

Fifty-five jurisdictions in the geographic count cover states plus territories and other coded entities in the USAspending state field. Trust Fund dollars still follow allotment formulas as coded, not equal shares. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.

Award rows are not a unit census

Among HUD assistance listings, 14.275 is a compact formula file: 146 awards against 56 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of housing projects” and a worse proxy for units produced. Recipients (56) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (146) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report units, AMI bands, or waiting lists. Citing 146 as apartments would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. One hundred forty-six awards across 56 recipients is formula-allotment architecture, not a unit-production census.

Obligations versus Housing Trust Fund outlays

The $658.9M is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Housing Trust Fund awards — are not in the packet. A formula file can show a large obligation stock while draws follow a later construction calendar. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. A remaining-balance question is an outlay question this extract does not answer.

Use CFDA 14.275 to size this Housing Trust Fund listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as a HOME, CDBG, or Section 8 dashboard. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 14.275.

What the 14.275 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a unit inventory, not a developer directory, and not a rent-restriction log. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $658,864,641.40. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 146 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 55 jurisdictions is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid to grantees.

The Housing Trust Fund’s 55-jurisdiction map and 56-recipient headcount together describe a state-and-territory formula book, not a developer-by-developer unit file. A researcher comparing 14.275 with HOME or CDBG codes should keep CFDA numbers separate. The $658.9M stock is the USAspending obligation book for this listing only.

About 2.6 award records per recipient is the density story on this listing. Outlays remain a separate column. Source: USAspending.gov assistance awards.

Units, AMI bands, and waiting lists live in other HUD series. Those rows are outside $658,864,641.40 unless they share CFDA 14.275. Quote 146 as assistance records, 56 as organizational payees, and 55 as the geographic count.
