Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers in Florida

What the 14.871–Florida join is

CFDA 14.871 is titled SECTION 8 HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHERS. Crossed with Florida place of performance, obligations sum to $4,518,055,849 on 5,335 awards. The national 14.871 hub includes other states. Florida’s spending hub includes other programs. Only this intersection is reported here. $4,518,055,849 is an obligation aggregate from USAspending.gov, not an outlay and not a count of voucher households in Miami, Tampa, or Orlando.

5,335 awards is a thick PHA-level book, thinner than Texas’s 14.871 cell at a similar dollar scale, which means a higher mean per record. That is a reporting pattern, not a ranking of states. The join does not name PHAs, list landlords, or count occupied units. Packet facts stop at $4,518,055,849, 5,335 awards, FL, and 14.871.

14.871 is not project-based HAP or public housing operating

Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments (CFDA 14.195) and the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) are different HUD catalogs. Mixing those dollars into $4,518,055,849 would invent a broader housing total than this cell contains. Facts available: Florida, CFDA 14.871, $4,518,055,849, 5,335 awards. Occupancy rates and wait-list counts are not in the facts.

The catalog title names Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers, not a ranking of PHA need. Dividing $4,518,055,849 by 5,335 yields about $846,871 per award—a record-level ratio, not a typical monthly HAP. Unique recipients are unpublished. 5,335 is not a count of apartments.
