Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments Program federal funding in Colorado

Colorado place of performance crossed with HAP listing 14.195

This tie exists because assistance awards tagged SECTION 8 HOUSING ASSISTANCE PAYMENTS PROGRAM also carry Colorado as place of performance. SpendingVault sums those tagged obligations: $691,180,851 on 1,054 awards. The pair is not a rent-burden index, not a metro ranking of Denver against mountain towns, and not a count of vouchers in use. Place of performance is a coding field. Recipients and assisted households can sit in a different county than a casual reader expects.

Other HUD listings for Colorado — tenant-based vouchers on a different CFDA, public housing, or homelessness grants — are outside $691,180,851 unless they also carry 14.195. The Alabama 14.195 join and other state HAP pages are sibling totals, not a ranking of which state is more affordable. Correlation between this obligation sum and Colorado rents is not causation; rent statistics are not in the packet. Place of performance as Colorado locates the tagged awards. It does not deposit $691,180,851 in the state treasury, and it does not split Denver from mountain communities. The extract reports 1,054 awards on CFDA 14.195 for that location field, nothing else.

1,054 HAP award rows behind $691.2 million

Award count is a row count of assistance awards, including possible renewals and modifications. It is not a census of Colorado apartment buildings or landlords. Mean obligation is about $655,769 if $691,180,851 were spread evenly across 1,054 lines — a mechanical ratio, not a typical contract size. The packet has no urban/rural split and no bedroom-count table.

Project-based HAP contracts often appear as owner or administrator awards. This extract does not label instrument type. Open the Colorado 14.195 overlay to inspect names and amounts. Do not convert 1,054 into a map of every assisted property in the state. The $691,180,851 join stays an obligation rollup on tagged awards.

Commitments versus rent paid on Colorado 14.195

Housing Assistance Payments in everyday language are monthly federal rent shares. USAspending still stores $691,180,851 as obligations. Draws can lag commitments. Deobligations can reduce what is paid without this catalog line becoming an outlay table. No fiscal year is attached; the extract is the indexed sum, not a single HAP contract year.

Local housing authorities publish voucher utilization and waiting-list figures that this packet does not contain. If those local numbers disagree with $691,180,851, the usual reason is a different metric or a different CFDA. SpendingVault keeps the assistance-obligation definition so Colorado’s 14.195 row matches other state-program joins. Tenant-based vouchers, public housing operating funds, and HOME dollars can sit on other listings; they are outside this HAP join unless they also carry 14.195. The extract reports $691,180,851 on 1,054 awards for that tagged pair.

What the Colorado Section 8 HAP join omits

The file has no unit count, no Fair Market Rent table, and no household income data. It does not say how much of $691,180,851 is Denver-metro versus elsewhere. Facts remain dollars, 1,054 awards, CFDA 14.195, and Colorado. This page will not invent a regional split.

Colorado federal spending and Colorado programs place 14.195 among other listings. CFDA 14.195 is the national HAP catalog line. All spending ties indexes other CFDA × state pairs. Mixing those views would invent a percentage of HUD spending this packet never calculated.

Where the Colorado 14.195 overlay lives

Start with Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments Program in Colorado for the 1,054-award table behind $691,180,851. CFDA 14.195 is the nationwide listing. Colorado federal spending and Colorado programs give state context. All spending ties is the shelf for other program-by-state joins on the same obligation metric. The $691,180,851 figure is the tagged pair only. Housing Assistance Payments on this listing are not a voucher utilization dashboard and not a Fair Market Rent table. Inspect named award lines on the overlay rather than treating 1,054 as a property census.

Questions

How much Section 8 HAP funding is obligated in Colorado?

USAspending.gov shows $691,180,851 in obligations for CFDA 14.195 with Colorado as place of performance, across 1,054 awards. The sum is a commitment total, not outlays and not Colorado’s full housing budget. Other HUD listings are outside this join unless they also carry 14.195.

Do 1,054 awards equal 1,054 Colorado housing projects?

No. Award count is a row count of assistance awards and can include renewals. It is not a property census or household count. The packet does not split project-based contracts from other instruments. See the Colorado 14.195 overlay for named award lines.

Is $691 million already paid as Colorado rent assistance?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on assistance awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $691,180,851 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault's extract. HAP disbursements, remaining balances, and waiting-list counts are not in this packet.

Does this include all Colorado Section 8 vouchers?

Not necessarily. This page is CFDA 14.195 — Housing Assistance Payments Program — crossed with Colorado place of performance. Tenant-based vouchers may sit on other listings. Those dollars are not inside $691,180,851 unless the award also carries 14.195.
