SAFMRs are published for studio through 4-bedroom units; larger sizes have no ZIP-level SAFMR, so this studio stops at 4BR rather than extrapolating.
This is a
screening model, not a payment standard adoption. Under
24 CFR 982.503
your authority adopts the exact standard, ordinarily inside the 90%–110% basic range of the applicable
FMR/SAFMR — going outside that range requires HUD approval (or applicable waiver/MTW authority), so the slider
stays inside it. The share shown counts
advertised asking rents observed on public listings in that ZIP
(market-rate pool, source-linked) at or under the proposed standard — a leaseable-share proxy, not a success-rate
prediction: asking rents are not leased rents, utility allowances are not modeled, and unit quality, size and
amenities are not held constant. Every figure is computed from exactly the observations listed. If a ZIP is not
in the SAFMR file, or no observations exist, we say so instead of guessing.
The
market rent context band draws p25/median/p75 from observed asking rents in the
Comptrove observation lane (
observation total loading…); cells with fewer than 5 observations are
excluded rather than shown, and this pool is broader than — and distinct from — the rent reasonableness
determination pool.
