The Section 8 Rental Certificate and Rental Voucher programs are a critical part of the Federal Government's efforts to expand rental housing opportunities for low-income families. This study provides valuable insights into the housing search experiences and outcomes of Section 8 enrollees who, when they are not homeless or sharing a housing unit, were paying an average of two-thirds of their income in rent. Covers: success rates, need for assistance, and demographics; and determinants of enrollee success. 50 charts, tables and graphs.
