35 <br /> NA-15 Disproportionately Greater Need: Housing Problems - 91.405, 91.205 (b)(2) <br /> Introduction <br /> This section evaluates whether any racial/ethnic group in Orange County is disproportionately affected <br /> by housing problems—including lacking complete kitchen facilities, lacking complete plumbing facilities, <br /> having more than one person per room, or having a cost burden over 30%. We define <br /> "disproportionately greater need" as having a rate of severe housing problems that is more than ten <br /> percentage points greater than county-wide figures. Data for this analysis is sourced from the 2011- <br /> 2015 CHAS. Results are divided by household income. For households in the 0-30%of Area Median <br /> Income (AMI) group, we exclude those who have no or negative income but none of the other housing <br /> problems. In all the tables below,the four housing problems are: (1) lacks complete kitchen facilities, (2) <br /> lacks complete plumbing facilities, (3) more than one person per room, and (4) cost burden greater than <br /> 30% of income. <br /> 0%-30%of Area Median Income <br /> Housing Problems Has one or more of Has none of the four Household has <br /> four housing housing problems no/negative <br /> problems income,but none of <br /> the other housing <br /> problems <br /> Jurisdiction as a whole 6,024 863 834 <br /> White 3,769 439 438 <br /> Black/African American 1,090 298 63 <br /> Asian 320 0 270 <br /> American Indian,Alaska Native 53 4 15 <br /> Pacific Islander 15 0 0 <br /> Hispanic 558 85 0 <br /> Table 13-Disproportionally Greater Need 0-30%AMI <br /> Data Source:2011-2015 CHAS <br /> 30%-50%of Area Median Income <br /> Housing Problems Has one or more of Has none of the four Household has <br /> four housing housing problems no/negative <br /> problems income,but none of <br /> the other housing <br /> problems <br /> Jurisdiction as a whole 3,920 1,530 0 <br /> White 2,674 919 0 <br /> Black/African American 514 385 0 <br /> Asian 295 35 0 <br /> American Indian,Alaska Native 4 40 0 <br /> Pacific Islander 0 0 0 <br /> Hispanic 333 148 0 <br /> Table 14-Disproportionally Greater Need 30-50%AMI <br /> Data Source:2011-2015 CHAS <br /> FFY 2020—2024 Orange County, NC HOME Consortium 32 <br /> Consolidated Plan <br /> OMB Control No:2506-0117(exp.06/30/2018) <br />
