Scale profile for Greene Metropolitian Housing Authority

With 1,466 authorized Housing Choice Voucher units, Greene Metropolitian Housing Authority sits at the 90th percentile of every U.S. PHA that reports an HCV ceiling , and at the 83rd percentile inside OH.

Inside HUD's Federal Record for Greene Metropolitian Housing Authority

HUD's PHAS system places it in the "Substandard Physical" size bracket, which shapes reporting cadence and oversight intensity. Greene Metropolitian Housing Authority is one of 3,780 agencies HUD tracks in its PIH Open Data directory for the Section 8 / Housing Choice Voucher program operating in OH. This agency's HUD authorization runs to 1,466 Section 8 / HCV units, out of 366 total authorized units when every HUD program is counted.

By Section 8 unit count among OH agencies, it lands at the 83rd percentile, larger than 83% of its in-state peers. HUD logs its program type as "Combined," which determines which voucher streams (regular HCV, VASH, Family Unification, Mainstream, or project-based conversions) it can run. The federal rulebook lets every PHA set its own waitlist rules, admissions plan, and local preferences, so this authorized-unit total is best read as a program cap, not a live vacancy count.

Across OH's 68 HUD FMR areas, the FY2026 2-bedroom payment standard runs $973-$1,433/month (median $980); Greene Metropolitian Housing Authority sets its own figure within 90-110 percent of HUD's Fair Market Rent for the specific area it serves, so confirm the exact number for your metro before signing anything. its main line is 9373762908.

How to apply at Greene Metropolitian Housing Authority

How to apply at this PHA

Before applying, confirm whether this PHA's waitlist is currently open. Waitlist status can change without much notice, some PHAs open for as little as 72 hours at a time. Application channels typically include:

  • The PHA's own website (search "Greene Metropolitian Housing Authority Section 8 application")
  • A public notice posted at the PHA office or in the legal notices of the local newspaper
  • HUD-approved housing counseling agencies in the area
  • Local legal-aid and tenant-advocacy groups

See our step-by-step How to Apply for Section 8 guide for the full federal application process.

What to expect, typical waitlist

HUD does not publish current waitlist open/closed status centrally, and waitlist lengths vary sharply by local demand. In high-cost metros, waits can exceed 5–10 years and many waitlists are closed. In smaller cities and rural counties, waits of 6 months to 3 years are more typical. Some PHAs use a lottery rather than first-come-first-served. This site does not predict your individual wait time. Contact the PHA directly to confirm the current list status and whether local preferences apply to your household. Our waitlist strategy guide explains how to maximize your odds by applying to multiple PHAs.

Payment standard reference

Payment standards are set per HUD FMR area, not per agency. Across OH's 68 HUD FMR areas, the FY2026 2-bedroom payment standard ranges $973–$1,433/month (median $980). Greene Metropolitian Housing Authority sets its own figure within 90–110 percent of HUD's Fair Market Rent for the specific area it serves.

Find your exact number: look up the 2-, 1-, and 3-bedroom payment standards for your metro with the payment-standard lookup tool, then confirm the current figure with the PHA before signing a lease. See our Payment Standards vs. FMR guide.
