The years 2023 and 2024 represent 25 percent of the 2023–2031 Regional Housing Needs Allocation planning cycle. Some of the cities that permitted 25 percent of their very low income and/or low income housing also permitted 25 percent of their above moderate rate housing, though the map does not display that data.
