Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice

Allegheny County is an entitlement jurisdiction under the U.S. Dept. of HUD's Community Development Block Grant Progrm (CDBG). In accordance with the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, each entitlement jurisdiction must "affirmatively further fair housing." In order to "affirmatively further fair housing" each entitlement jurisdiction must conduct a Fair Housing Analysis which identifies any impediments to fair housing choice.

As a part of its Five-Year Consolidated Plan, the County has prepared this 2007 Update to the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice.
