HUD spends $7 billion annually to provide decent, safe, and sanitary housing for low-income households in 14,000 rental prop. admin. by 3,000 public housing authorities (PHA). Yet many public housing prop. have been unsafe and unsanitary for several decades. To identify and correct these and other problems, HUD has begun to implement the Public Housing Assess. System for evaluating PHA performance. This report: identifies HUD's criteria for designating PHA as troubled and as high risk; describes the kinds of problems found at PHA; and identifies HUD's options for addressing problems at PHA, regardless of whether they have been designated as troubled, and examples of the options HUD has used at non-troubled PHA that pose high risks. Charts and tables.

Congress created the Farm Labor Housing (FLH) Loan and Grant Program in the early 1960s to support the development of affordable housing for farm workers. In 2010, Congress appropriated $19.7 million for this program, which is administered by the Rural Housing Service (RHS). This report examined: (1) demand for the FLH program; (2) RHS's processes for ensuring that the program is providing decent housing for eligible farmworkers; and (3) the financial status and financial management of FLH properties. To do this work, the auditor analyzed agency data and regulations; convened a group of experts; and selected and inspected 20 properties in five states. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand report.
