Questions about ZIP 01129 rents

How much will Section 8 pay for a two-bedroom in ZIP 01129?

Housing authorities set voucher payment standards, normally between 90% and 110% of the FMR. With the metro-wide two-bedroom FMR of $1,800, which applies unless the housing authority uses Small Area FMRs, that basic range is $1,620 to $1,980 a month; under the ZIP-level Small Area FMR of $2,010 it would be $1,809 to $2,211.
