Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Eligibility by Census Tract - CSV

Metadata Updated: July 12, 2025

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires local municipalities that receive Community Development Block Grant (CDBG or CD) formula Entitlement funds to use the 5-year 2016-2020 American Community Survey (ACS) Low and Moderate Income Summary Data (LMISD) data file to determine where CDBG funds may be used for activities that are available to all the residents in a particular area ("CD area benefit" or "CD-eligible area"). A CD-eligible census tract refers to 2020 census tracts where the area is primarily residential in nature and at least 51.00% of the residents are low- and moderate-income persons as per the LMISD data file. For New York City, a primarily residential area is defined as one where at least 50.00% of the total built floor area is residential. Low- and moderate-income persons are defined as persons living in households with incomes below 80 percent of the area median household income (AMI). In addition, floor area percentages have been updated with the most recent floor area data (PLUTO 24v4). Persons who are interested in determining their individual household eligibility for CD-funded programs should refer to HUD's household low- and moderate-income limits for the given year. For more information about how geographic datasets are used for compliance purposes, please refer to the following HUD Office of Community Planning and Development (CPD) Notice CPD-24-04.
