Section 8 rental properties

[Connor Depace]

Hi everyone,

I have a pretty specific question about the section 8 voucher program. I'm trying to find out how many people there are with vouchers who have found apartments compared to how many people have vouchers but cannot find apartments or homes. Specifically in NJ. Thanks, any help is appreciated!

Hey guys thanks for the response. How many people In Essex county have vouchers but are not able to find homes to use them for? For example are there 1000 people with vouchers in Essex county but only 950 can find homes? Do you guys know where I could find this exact info? I've tried calling the state HUD but they have not been very helpful connecting me with the right people. Thanks again for any help!

Contact your local office, list of all the NJ section 8 offices are in the pdf link below. Also ask them if they can provide you with a good local assistance organization that assists section 8 tenants in obtaining section 8 apartments.

This is the agency that I use. http://www.alternativesinc.org/default.aspx
