About NY137 & the Section 8 Program
City of Poughkeepsie is the HUD-assigned Public Housing Authority code NY137 for Poughkeepsie, New York. PHAs administer the federal Housing Choice Voucher program under 24 CFR Part 982, paying the difference between a tenant's contribution (typically 30% of adjusted income) and the unit's contract rent — capped by the PHA's published payment standard.
