Each year the City of Columbia receives federal funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) due to its population, demographics and available funding.

These funds primarily benefit low to moderate income households, and can be used for affordable housing, economic and workforce development, community facilities and neighborhood revitalization and stabilization.
The survey is primarily for residents of Columbia, Missouri. The survey will be available from October 9, 2023 – February 9, 2024.
