For FY 2027, HUD's Small Area Fair Market Rent for a two-bedroom unit in ZIP 07019 (East Orange, NJ) is $2,110 a month. That is up 1.4% from $2,080 in FY 2026. East Orange is in the Newark, NJ HUD Metro FMR Area. HUD also publishes the ZIP-level Small Area FMRs shown here, but unless the local housing authority has adopted them, vouchers are based on the metro-wide two-bedroom FMR of $2,233. Among 39 ZIP codes in Essex County, 07019 is tied for the 23rd-highest two-bedroom rent (county range $1,990–$3,350). The median county two-bedroom FMR in New Jersey is $2,233, so ZIP 07019 is 6% below it.
How much will Section 8 pay for a two-bedroom in ZIP 07019?
Housing authorities set voucher payment standards, normally between 90% and 110% of the FMR. With the metro-wide two-bedroom FMR of $2,233, which applies unless the housing authority uses Small Area FMRs, that basic range is $2,010 to $2,456 a month; under the ZIP-level Small Area FMR of $2,110 it would be $1,899 to $2,321. The voucher pays the lower of the payment standard or the gross rent, minus the tenant's share, which is usually about 30% of adjusted monthly income. Confirm the local housing authority's current schedule before underwriting.
