Inside HUD's Federal Record for Pierre Housing & Redevelopment Commision
Pierre Housing & Redevelopment Commision appears in HUD's Public and Indian Housing (PIH) Open Data set, one of 3,780 Public Housing Authorities nationwide running the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program alongside every other agency in SD. This agency's HUD authorization runs to 300 Section 8 / HCV units, out of 50 total authorized units when every HUD program is counted. HUD's PHAS system places it in the "High Performer" size bracket, which shapes reporting cadence and oversight intensity.
Ranked by Section 8 unit count within SD, it sits at the 83rd percentile there, ahead of 83% of SD PHAs by that measure. HUD's directory categorizes it under the "Combined" program type, the classification that governs which voucher streams -- regular HCV, VASH, Family Unification, Mainstream, or project-based conversions -- it is eligible to run. 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 6057737425. Use the nearby-PHA list below to broaden your waitlist strategy across the state. Across SD's 63 HUD FMR areas, the FY2025 2-bedroom payment standard runs $872-$1,119/month (median $872); Pierre Housing & Redevelopment Commision 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 Pierre Housing & Redevelopment Commision
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 "Pierre Housing & Redevelopment Commision 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 SD's 63 HUD FMR areas, the FY2025 2-bedroom payment standard ranges $872–$1,119/month (median $872). Pierre Housing & Redevelopment Commision 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.
