Read the local picture
Fair Market Rent (FMR) is HUD’s estimate of the 40th percentile gross rent for standard-quality rental homes occupied by recent movers. It includes rent and most tenant-paid utilities. A household’s actual rent can differ substantially by neighborhood, lease and property.
Put the benchmark in context
The rent-to-income comparison uses 12 months of the 2BR FMR divided by median household income. It compares different vintages and all household types; it is not the share of renter households that are cost burdened.
Annual income vs annual 2BR rent
ACS 2020–2024 median household income and 12 × HUD FY2027 2BR FMR. Dollars per year; separate vintages and household groups.
Income remaining after this rent benchmark is $59,579 per year, before taxes, food, transport, health care and other expenses.
No BEA metro RPP is assigned to this county from the July 2023 Census metropolitan delineation. State RPP provides wider context.
