OC Housing Inventory Count (HIC)
The Housing Inventory Count collects information about all of the beds and units in each Continuum of Care homeless system, categorized by Provider Project Types.
All CoCs are required to conduct a HIC count every year. Counts must be conducted during the last ten days in January. CoCs submit their HIC data via HUD’s Homelessness Data Exchange (HDX) in the Spring.
To see HIC data for our CoC throughout the years, check out the CoC Housing Inventory County Reports.
For raw data please review the 2018 HIC.
*Chart includes current inventory as of the date of the HIC for that year, and doesn’t include beds that were under development.
OC Point In Time Count (PIT) Reports and Briefs
The Point-in-Time (PIT) count is a count of sheltered and unsheltered homeless persons on a single night during the last 10 days of January. The sheltered count must occur on an annual basis, and include clients in Emergency Shelter, Transitional Housing, and Safe Haven projects. CoCs also must conduct a count of unsheltered homeless persons every other year. The CoC Homeless Population and Subpopulation reports are published by HUD annually, and show PIT data for Orange County year by year.
