HQS, Locally
Areas like Gloucester City and Brooklawn have older housing stock and therefore have issues similar to other older-stock areas: lead paint certifications are often needed, and row homes in these communities can also have pest control issues that need to be addressed before a unit passes inspection. The east side of Camden County, places like Winslow and Gloucester Township, have younger housing stock and therefore do not see as many inspection problems as the older stock does.
The Camden County housing payment standard is a few hundred dollars lower than what a cash tenant would pay for the same area. That is the honest read. The advantage of Section 8 in Camden County is not the rent ceiling: it is lower unit turns. Section 8 tenants in this market tend to stay longer than traditional cash tenants, reducing the frequency of costly unit turnovers. For owners thinking long-term, that stability is often worth more than the difference in monthly rent.
