The Income Limits for the Housing Choice Voucher Program are the Very Low Income Limits or 50% of the median income for Merced County. However, HUD Federal Regulation requires that 75% of families newly admitted to the program during a year be within the EXTREMELY LOW INCOME LIMITS as shown in the 3rd column. Very Low Income Families are skipped on the waiting list until the Housing Authority reaches the 75%
