Among 18 ZIP codes in Adams County, 80045 has the 4th-highest two-bedroom rent (county range $1,890–$2,950). The median county two-bedroom FMR in Colorado is $1,375, so ZIP 80045 is 73% above it.
How much will Section 8 pay for a two-bedroom in ZIP 80045?
Housing authorities set voucher payment standards, normally between 90% and 110% of the FMR. With the metro-wide two-bedroom FMR of $2,169, which applies unless the housing authority uses Small Area FMRs, that basic range is $1,952 to $2,386 a month; under the ZIP-level Small Area FMR of $2,380 it would be $2,142 to $2,618. 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.
