CityFHEPS apartments in Poughkeepsie, NY
CityFHEPS is NYC's rental assistance program. Since 2025 the voucher has been portable to all 62 New York counties — CityFHEPS holders originally issued in NYC can now use the voucher to rent in Westchester, Long Island, the Hudson Valley, and every upstate county. Payment standards adjust to the county Fair Market Rent where the tenant rents. Below are the current payment standards, the governing state agency, and the 6 neighborhoods where we track voucher-friendly search demand.
Voucher discrimination is illegal here
Under NY Real Property Law §227-h, source-of-income discrimination is prohibited statewide. A March 2026 appellate ruling (Commons West) created some uncertainty about state-law enforcement as applied to Section 8 in the Third Department — local courts may vary. Consult legal aid if you experience discrimination.
