Data sources

fmr.fyi is built around publicly available data from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). We ingest HUD Fair Market Rent (FMR) and, where applicable, Small Area Fair Market Rent (SAFMR).

What we show

• FMR values (typically county/metropolitan-area level) for 0–4 bedroom units.
• SAFMR values (ZIP-level) for designated metropolitan areas.

Notes

HUD updates these datasets on an annual cadence (fiscal year). Local housing agencies may apply their own payment standards and program rules, so treat these values as a benchmark and verify locally when needed.
