Thousands of San Diegans waiting for rental assistance
SAN DIEGO (KGTV)- Tens of thousands of people in San Diego are on a waiting list for rental assistance.
According to the San Diego Housing Commission, the Section 8 voucher program is currently helping about 15,000 families. With the need so great, Team 10 wanted to know if everyone getting help qualifies for a voucher.
Using information from the San Diego Housing Commission, 10News compared 2017 data on family size and income limits to the maximum annual income limits allowed at the time. The comparison showed more than 20 cases where income was more than what was allowed at the time.
Representatives with the housing commission said it is possible for people to be above the limit.
