Every county in Hawaii

4 counties

Ranked by units under contract. 4 of 4 publish a wait figure; the rest are suppressed (fewer than 11 families), missing, or non-reporting, and are shown as "no data" rather than as a zero.

County Units Households Wait (mo, those admitted) ELI need met
Honolulu County 16,065 12,641 32 37.2%
Hawaii County 3,475 3,109 21 44.8%
Maui County 2,411 2,239 36 45.1%
Kauai County 1,612 1,259 16 57.3%

The wait is the time households who were admitted spent waiting. Everyone still on a list is absent from HUD's file entirely, so the real wait is longer than any figure here. Need is from HUD CHAS (2017-2021 ACS); supply is from the HUD Picture file (2025). See the methodology.
