Two-bedroom rent in nearby Gallatin County ZIP codes
How much will Section 8 pay for a two-bedroom in ZIP 59772?
Housing authorities set voucher payment standards, normally between 90% and 110% of the FMR. With the metro-wide two-bedroom FMR of $2,109, which applies unless the housing authority uses Small Area FMRs, that basic range is $1,898 to $2,320 a month; under the ZIP-level Small Area FMR of $2,110 it would be $1,899 to $2,321.

Confirm the local housing authority's current schedule before underwriting.
