In recognition of the shortage of units, local housing authority offices inform applicants of their right to elect to be housed at the "Maximum Persons" density level, regardless of the age and sex of the household members. If a household chooses to do this, the household is not entitled to transfer due to overcrowding unless there is a subsequent increase in household composition.
In determining appropriate unit size, spouses and children may be assigned to separate bedrooms for reasons critical to emotional or physical health, if appropriate medical documentation to justify such an assignment has been submitted to and approved by the local housing authority.
