SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: 2021
American Housing Survey.
OMB Approval Number: 2528–0017.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Form Number: None.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
purpose of the American Housing
Survey (AHS) is to supply the public
with detailed and timely information
about housing quality, housing costs,
and neighborhood assets, in support of
effective housing policy, programs, and
markets. Title 12, United States Code,
Sections 1701Z–1, 1701Z–2(g), and
1710Z–10a mandates the collection of
this information.

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 153 / Friday, August 7, 2020 / Notices
Like the previous surveys, the 2021
AHS will collect ‘‘core’’ data on
subjects, such as the amount and types
of changes in the housing inventory, the
physical condition of the housing
inventory, the characteristics of the
occupants, housing costs for owners and
renters, including a redesigned mortgage
section, the persons eligible for and
beneficiaries of assisted housing,
remodeling and repair frequency,
reasons for moving, the number and
characteristics of vacancies, and
characteristics of resident’s
neighborhood. In addition to the ‘‘core’’
data, HUD plans to collect supplemental
data on potential health and safety
hazards in the home, the renter housing
search process, housing characteristics
that increase wildfire risk, household
pets, and delinquent payments and
notices for mortgage, rent, or utility
bills.
The AHS national longitudinal
sample consists of approximately 90,600
housing units, and includes oversample
from the largest 15 metropolitan areas,
approximately 5,200 HUD-assisted
housing units, and approximately 3,000
units subsidized in the Low-Income
Housing Tax Credit program. In
addition to the national longitudinal
sample, HUD plans to conduct 10
additional metropolitan area
longitudinal samples, each with
approximately 3,000 housing units (for
a total 30,000 metropolitan area housing
units). The 10 additional metropolitan
area longitudinal samples were last
surveyed in 2017.
To help reduce respondent burden on
households in the longitudinal sample,
the 2021 AHS will make use of
dependent interviewing techniques,
which will decrease the number of
questions asked. Policy analysts,
program managers, budget analysts, and
Congressional staff use AHS data to
advise executive and legislative
branches about housing conditions and
the suitability of public policy
initiatives. Academic researchers and
private organizations also use AHS data
in efforts of specific interest and
concern to their respective
communities.
The Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) needs the
AHS data for the following two reasons:
1. With the data, policy analysts can
monitor the interaction among housing
needs, demand and supply, as well as
changes in housing conditions and
costs, to aid in the development of
housing policies and the design of
housing programs appropriate for
different target groups, such as first-time
home buyers and the elderly.

2. With the data, HUD can evaluate,
monitor, and design HUD programs to
improve efficiency and effectiveness.
Members of affected public:
Households.
Estimated number of respondents:
129,000.
Estimated time per response: 27.7
minutes.
Frequency of response: One time
every two years.
Estimated total annual burden hours:
59,500.
Estimated total annual cost: The only
cost to respondents is that of their time.
The total estimated cost is $66,800,000.
Respondent’s obligation: Voluntary.
Legal authority: This survey is
conducted under Title 12, U.S.C.,
Section 1701z–1 et seq.
B. Solicitation of Public Comment
