What Is the Resident Characteristics Report?
The Resident Characteristics Report summarizes general information
about households who reside in Public Housing, or who receive Section
8 assistance. The report provides aggregate demographic and income
information that allows for an analysis of the scope and effectiveness
of housing agency operations. The data used to create the report
is updated once a month from IMS-PIC.

Steps for Creating a Report
A user help guide is available to assist users in creating reports.
Users have options to select the level of data (from national down
to a single agency or Congressional district) and the program types
to be included in the report. If the user selects other than national
level data, he or she also selects another level with which to compare
it. The report does not disclose any individual household data.
