Housing Assistance Program Data - Renters
The dataset was generated by FEMA’s Individual Assistance (IA) reporting team and contains raw, unedited data from FEMA's National Emergency Management Information System (NEMIS).rnThis dataset contains aggregated, non-PII data for registration renters from FEMA’s Housing Assistance program within the state, county, zip where the registration is valid for the declarations, starting with disaster declaration DR4116 (declared in 2013). Core data elements include number of applicants, county, zip code, and severity of damage, with individual data elements and descriptions listed in the metadata information within the dataset. rnData is self-reported and subject to human error. For example, when an applicant registers online, they enter their street and city address. The system runs a check and suggests a county. The applicant can override that choice. Similarly, with a call center registration, the Human Services Specialist (HSS) representatives are instructed to ask what county they live in. An applicant has the right to choose the county.rnThe financial information is derived from NEMIS and not FEMA's official financial systems. Due to differences in reporting periods, status of obligations and application of business rules, this financial information may differ slightly from official publication on public websites such as usaspending.gov. This dataset is not intended to be used for any official federal reporting.rnTo learn more about disaster assistance please visit https://www.fema.gov/individual-disaster-assistance.rnCitation: The Agency’s preferred citation for datasets (API usage or file downloads) can be found on the OpenFEMA Terms and Conditions page, Citing Data section: https://www.fema.gov/about/openfema/terms-conditions.rnIf you have media inquiries about this dataset, please email the FEMA News Desk FEMA-News-Desk@fema.dhs.gov or call (202) 646-3272.
