Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote MCP server that gives an assistant US HUD housing data: fair market rents, income limits, public housing, vouchers and homeless counts.

What you can do
  • Look up HUD Fair Market Rents for 0-4 bedroom units by state, used for voucher payment standards
  • Retrieve very low, low and median income limits by family size and county
  • List public housing buildings and developments with addresses, unit counts and managing agency
  • Get Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8) program data by Public Housing Agency, including totals, utilization and spending
  • Read Point-in-Time homeless counts by Continuum of Care, split by sheltered and unsheltered status
When to use it
Useful when answering questions about US affordable housing, rental benchmarks, program eligibility thresholds, or local housing and homelessness statistics, and when you want those figures pulled from HUD sources rather than recalled.
Requirements
Runs as a remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no local install or package. The rent and income limit tools need a HUD User API token, and the server returns registration guidance when it is not configured. The public housing, voucher and homeless tools use HUD ArcGIS open data and need no key.
Before you install
Two tools depend on a HUD User API token, so be aware of how that credential is supplied and stored. All tools are read-only lookups; no data is written or changed. Results are US federal housing data and may lag current conditions.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open HUD Housing Data in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.olyport%2Fhud-housing/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows
