Scale profile for Chesapeake Redevelopment & Housing Authority
With 2,011 authorized Housing Choice Voucher units, Chesapeake Redevelopment & Housing Authority sits at the 87th percentile of every U.S. PHA that reports an HCV ceiling , and at the 72nd percentile inside VA. That puts it among the larger local administrators of federal rental assistance, not a single-office rural authority.
Across VA's 64 HUD FMR areas, FY2026 2-bedroom payment standards run $914–$2,246/month (median $1,039). A large PHA like this typically serves more than one FMR area, so applicants should look up the metro-specific standard rather than treating the state median as their number. 5 other VA PHAs appear in the nearby list below; comparing authorized-unit counts there shows whether Chesapeake Redevelopment & Housing Authority is the dominant local issuer or one of several large peers.
Compared to nationwide HUD median of 62%, PHAs with high HCV share typically focus on tenant-based assistance over project-based public housing.
