How much will Section 8 pay for a two-bedroom in ZIP 96784?
Housing authorities set voucher payment standards, normally between 90% and 110% of the FMR. With the metro-wide two-bedroom FMR of $2,656, which applies unless the housing authority uses Small Area FMRs, that basic range is $2,390 to $2,922 a month; under the ZIP-level Small Area FMR of $2,660 it would be $2,394 to $2,926. 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.
