What HUD's PIH Record for Paris-Bourbon County Community Dev. Agency Tells You

This agency's HUD authorization runs to 472 Section 8 / HCV units. That count sits inside HUD's national PIH roster of 3,780 Section 8 agencies, KY's share of the total, where Paris-Bourbon County Community Dev. Agency is listed as an active administering entity.

HUD logs its program type as "Section 8," which determines which voucher streams (regular HCV, VASH, Family Unification, Mainstream, or project-based conversions) it can run. By Section 8 unit count among KY agencies, it lands at the 84th percentile, larger than 84% of its in-state peers. HUD sets the ceiling; each PHA still runs its own waitlist, admissions plan, and local preferences under the federal Section 8 rulebook, so the number above caps capacity without guaranteeing an open list today.

its main line is 8599871970. Use the nearby-PHA list below to broaden your waitlist strategy across the state. Across KY's 100 HUD FMR areas, the FY2025 2-bedroom payment standard runs $867-$1,330/month (median $867); Paris-Bourbon County Community Dev. Agency sets its own figure within 90-110% of HUD's Fair Market Rent for the specific area it serves, so confirm the exact number for your metro before signing anything.

How to apply at Paris-Bourbon County Community Dev. Agency

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 "Paris-Bourbon County Community Dev. Agency 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 KY's 100 HUD FMR areas, the FY2025 2-bedroom payment standard ranges $867–$1,330/month (median $867). Paris-Bourbon County Community Dev. Agency sets its own figure within 90–110% 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.
