ZIP 52801 fair market rent, FY 2027
For FY 2027, HUD's Small Area Fair Market Rent for a two-bedroom unit in ZIP 52801 (Davenport, IA) is $1,100 a month. That is down 6.0% from $1,170 in FY 2026. Davenport is in the Davenport-Moline-Rock Island, IA-IL MSA. 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 $1,056. Among 24 ZIP codes in Scott County, 52801 is tied for the 13th-highest two-bedroom rent (county range $1,030–$1,580). The median county two-bedroom FMR in Iowa is $927, so ZIP 52801 is 19% above it.
How much will Section 8 pay for a two-bedroom in ZIP 52801?
Housing authorities set voucher payment standards, normally between 90% and 110% of the FMR. With the metro-wide two-bedroom FMR of $1,056, which applies unless the housing authority uses Small Area FMRs, that basic range is $950 to $1,162 a month; under the ZIP-level Small Area FMR of $1,100 it would be $990 to $1,210. 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.
