Complete Guide to Section 8 & Public Housing in California

California has 96 housing authorities managing a combined 951 waiting lists across Section 8 (HCV), Public Housing, and Project-Based Voucher programs. Currently, 328 of those lists are accepting applications — an open rate of approximately 34%. This data was last verified on Oct 5, 2026.

Those agencies administer roughly 392,660 assisted housing units statewide — 23,296 public housing units and 369,364 Housing Choice Vouchers, across 40 counties. Income limits are set by HUD per county or metro area, so eligibility thresholds differ between agencies within California.

The affordable housing programs tracked in California include Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV) (7 open), Public Housing (20 open), Project-Based Vouchers (PBV) (26 open), Mainstream (5 open), RAD (2 open), VASH (5 open). Each program has its own eligibility criteria, application process, and wait times. In most cases, applicants can apply to multiple program types at the same housing authority, and there is no limit to the number of housing authorities you can apply to statewide.

The cities with the most open waitlists in California right now are Pleasanton (27), San Luis Obispo (26), San Jose (25), Hanford (16), and San Bernardino (15) . Applicants who are flexible about location will generally receive assistance sooner than those who apply to a single waitlist in a high-demand area.

Latest opening: County of Sonoma — HCV

Eligibility Requirements for California

Real-Time Data Verification
