Why a QCT/DDA?
What is a QCT / DDA?
A QCT is a census tract where the average median income is less than 60% of the
county median income, or where the poverty rate is greater than 25%. A DDA is an
area that has high construction, land and utility costs, relative to the Area Median
Gross Income (AMGI).

QCT / DDA Trend
The 30-percent boost in LIHTCs associated with QCTs has helped finance more than
one-fourth of all LIHTC projects and approximately one-third of projects in recent
years.
In 2004, the latest year for which data is available, 47.5 percent of LIHTC projects
and 56.1 percent of LIHTC units were located in a QCT
The chart below suggests an increase of 3.3% (in units) per year, at this rate all
units will be located within a QCT/DDA by 2016!
