Cost and eligibility
| Size | Rent | Yearly income To rent the home, your whole household's yearly income before taxes must be at least the amount on its row. The most you can earn depends on your household size, and the official listing shows it. Every home here is for incomes up to 60% of the area's median income: half of households there earn more, half less. | Homes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bedroom | $1,675 | At least $50,250 | 1 |
Section 8 voucher limits
The voucher limit is not what the voucher pays. It is the most rent and utilities together can cost while you still pay only about 30% of your income.
If rent and utilities together cost the voucher limit or less, you pay about 30% of your income. Your 30% pays for your utilities and part of the rent. The housing office pays your landlord the part of the rent you don't pay.
- You earn $2,000 a month, so your 30% is $600. Rent and utilities cost $1,300, under the $1,500 voucher limit. You pay $600, and the housing office pays your landlord the other $700.
If rent and utilities together cost more than the voucher limit, you pay about 30% of your income plus every dollar above the voucher limit.
- You earn $2,000 a month, so your 30% is $600. Rent and utilities cost $1,600, which is $100 over the $1,500 voucher limit. You pay $600 plus $100, which is $700, and the housing office pays your landlord the other $900.
In this home, you pay only about 30% of your income if your utilities cost $843 a month or less.
