Title 12, United States Code, Sections 1701Z–1, 1701Z–2(g), and 1710Z–10a mandates the collection of this information. Like the previous surveys, the 2023 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, mortgages, the persons eligible for and beneficiaries of assisted housing, Number of respondents Information collection Frequency of response Responses per annum each with approximately 3,000 housing units (for a total 32,830 metropolitan area housing units). The 10 additional metropolitan area longitudinal samples were last surveyed in 2019. To help reduce respondent burden on households in the longitudinal sample, the 2023 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. 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.

A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection 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.
    Like the previous surveys, the 2023 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, 
mortgages, 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, housing insecurity, perceptions of urbanization, sexual 
orientation and gender identity, parent's country of birth, first-
generation home ownership, housing characteristics that increase heat 
vulnerability, and experience and consequences of power outages.
    In 2015, the AHS began a new longitudinal panel. The sample design 
has two components: an integrated longitudinal national sample, and an 
independent metropolitan areas longitudinal sample. The integrated 
longitudinal national sample includes three parts: (1) 36,610 national 
cases representative of the U.S. and 9 Census Divisions outside the top 
15 metropolitan areas; (2) 12,068 HUD-assisted oversample cases; and 
(3) 48,273 sample cases of the top 15 metropolitan areas in the U.S. 
The total integrated longitudinal national sample for 2021 will consist 
of 96,951 housing units. In addition to the integrated national 
longitudinal sample, HUD plans to conduct 10 additional metropolitan 
area longitudinal samples, each with approximately 3,000 housing units 
(for a total 32,830 metropolitan area housing units). The 10 additional 
metropolitan area longitudinal samples were last surveyed in 2019.
    To help reduce respondent burden on households in the longitudinal 
sample, the 2023 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.
    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.
