Background
HUD USER contains over 800 documents, comprising a variety of reference material for researchers and policy makers. In addition to published works, HUD User hosts data sets and a bibliographic database. Most of the material can be downloaded for free or purchased in print-form.[1]
Periodicals
HUD USER publishes [2] at regular intervals, the Research Works newsletter, the Breakthrough e-newsletter, the tri-quarterly Cityscape journal and a quarterly report on U.S. housing market conditions.
Data sets
HUD USER provides researchers with access to the original data sets generated by PD&R-sponsored data collection efforts. These data sets include the American Housing Survey, HUD median family income limits, microdata from research initiatives, the HUD-insured multifamily housing stock, and the public housing population.[3]

In addition to the resources noted above, the HUD USER also hosts smaller, content-specific sections, including specialized clearing houses, housing, and community developments. HUD USER also hosts a case studies section highlighting development projects.[4]
