Ranked by Section 8 unit count within NY, it sits at the 19th percentile there, ahead of 19% of NY PHAs by that measure. HUD reports this authorized-unit figure as a capacity field. It is not a live waitlist, availability, eligibility, or application-status signal.

Across NY's 39 HUD FMR areas, the FY2026 2-bedroom payment standard runs $973-$2,910/month (median $1,185); Oneonta 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.
