LIHTC Allocations

Explore Low-Income Housing Tax Credit allocations by state, region, and year. Analyze per-capita credit distribution, track year-over-year shifts, and identify states with the strongest LIHTC activity — supporting site selection, policy research, and investment strategy decisions.

Note on methodology: Figures shown represent allocation authority — the IRS per-capita ceiling each state may award to developers — not the number of units actually placed in service. States may carry forward unused authority, and there is typically a multi-year gap between allocation and project completion. Historical years (2010–2023) use IRS per-capita floors; confirmed state-level breakdowns are noted where available.

Federal LIHTC Allocations by State

Interactive map showing Low-Income Housing Tax Credit allocations across all 50 states and D.C.

Note: Figures represent allocation authority (the IRS per-capita ceiling each state may award), not units placed in service. A multi-year gap between allocation and project completion is typical. Historical values (2010–2023) are IRS per-capita estimates; confirmed state figures are noted where available.
