Questions about ZIP 44608 rents

How much will Section 8 pay for a two-bedroom in ZIP 44608?

Housing authorities set voucher payment standards, normally between 90% and 110% of the FMR. With the metro-wide two-bedroom FMR of $1,049, which applies unless the housing authority uses Small Area FMRs, that basic range is $944 to $1,154 a month; under the ZIP-level Small Area FMR of $1,250 it would be $1,125 to $1,375.
