What HUD's PIH Record for Oklahoma Tells You

Few states carry as many separately chartered PHA records as Oklahoma: HUD's PIH directory ranks it #16 of 51 by headcount, with 104 records (3% of the 3,780 U.S. total we track) reporting 29,418 authorized Section 8 / HCV units combined. Across all HUD programs (public housing, HCV, and related subsidy streams) those same records report 10,161 total units. A majority of OK records - 83 of 104 (80%) - report zero authorized HCV units; that source field does not establish an active voucher program, a waitlist, or an application route.

Payment standards inside OK metros are set at 90–110% of HUD FY2026 Fair Market Rent, cross-referenced in our payment standards directory, so voucher value is metro-specific even within the same state. A city, county, regional, or statewide authority may share the state; the directory does not determine service-area eligibility, waitlist status, or whether an agency is accepting applications, use the source contact details to verify a specific agency's current programs. See the waitlist guide for general federal-program context and the portability guide for federal move rules.

PHAs in Oklahoma

Sorted by reported authorized HCV units, highest first. Many regions carry multiple PHA records (a city PHA, a county PHA, and sometimes a regional authority) - check the source contact details before relying on any single record for a current program, service area, or waitlist.
