Questions about Bayside, CA rents
How much will Section 8 pay for a two-bedroom in Bayside, CA?
Housing authorities set voucher payment standards, normally between 90% and 110% of the FMR. With the county-wide two-bedroom FMR of $1,554, which applies unless the housing authority uses Small Area FMRs, that basic range is $1,399 to $1,709 a month; under the ZIP-level Small Area FMR of $2,090 it would be $1,881 to $2,299.
