What Is This Program?

Rural housing and economic development are intrinsically linked, with USDA Rural Development providing key loans, grants, and loan guarantees to boost housing affordability, infrastructure, and business growth in rural areas. These programs tackle high rates of cost-burdened households (3 in 10 rural households) by supporting homeownership, rental properties, and essential community facilities, ultimately driving economic security.
