Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Disaster Recovery Buyouts

Published by U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development | Department of Housing and Urban Development | Metadata Last Checked: February 19, 2026 | Last Modified: 2023-09-05T20:48:01.371Z
The data demonstrates the location of CDBG-DR-funded buyout activities as part of the Office of Community Planning and Development's (CPD) Disaster Recovery Buyout Program. The data is derived from an extract of HUD CPD’s Disaster Recovery Grants Reporting (DRGR) System, an address-level dataset that includes Community Development Block Grant – Disaster Recovery activities for certain grantees and over a limited span of time during which grantees were required to report addresses of certain funded activities. Buyouts are a unique disaster-related activity made eligible through a waiver in the allocation of CDBG-DR grants following a natural hazard disaster. Under the waiver, grantees are permitted to use CDBG-DR funds to pay the pre-disaster or post-disaster value to acquire properties impacted by a natural hazard, usually flooding, for the purpose of risk reduction.
