Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity

The mission of the Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity (FHEO) is to eliminate housing discrimination, promote economic opportunity, and achieve diverse, inclusive communities by leading the nation in the enforcement, administration, development, and public understanding of federal fair housing policies and laws. FHEO administers the Fair Housing Assistance Program (FHAP) and the Fair Housing Initiatives Program (FHIP), enforces Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act, and owns the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) rule and its Data and Mapping Tool. FHEO does not run a developer portal of its own; its program data is published as anonymously callable ArcGIS REST feature services inside HUD's ArcGIS Online organization and through the HUD Open Data site, and its AFFH-T map and report services run on HUD's eGIS ArcGIS Server.

Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity publishes 5 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include AFFH, ArcGIS, Equal Opportunity, Fair Housing, and Federal-Government.

Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity’s developer surface includes documentation, support, engineering blog, authentication, and 23 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Government & Public Sector regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/fair-housing-and-equal-opportunity: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
