Fair Market Rents for the Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments
Program--Fiscal Year 2000
AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, HUD.
ACTION: Notice of Proposed Fiscal Year (FY) 2000 Fair Market Rents
(FMRs).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Section 8(c)(1) of the United States Housing Act of 1937
requires the Secretary to publish FMRs annually to be effective on
October 1 of each year. FMRs are used for the Section 8 Existing
certificate and voucher program and the new merged tenant-based
certificate and voucher program; the Moderate Rehabilitation Single
Room Occupancy program; the project-based voucher program; and any
other programs whose regulations specify their use. Today's notice
proposes revised FMRs that reflect estimated 40th percentile rent
levels trended to April 1, 2000.
DATES: Comments Due Date: July 6, 1999.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments regarding
HUD's estimates of the FMRs as published in this Notice to the Office
of the General Counsel, Rules Docket Clerk, Room 10276, Department of
Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, Washington, DC
20410. Communications should refer to the above docket number and title
and should contain the information specified in the ``Request for
Comments'' section. To ensure that the information is fully considered
by all of the reviewers, each commenter is requested to submit two
copies of its comments, one to the Rules Docket Clerk and the other to
the Economic and Market Analysis Staff in the appropriate HUD Field
Office. A copy of each communication submitted will be available for
public inspection and copying during regular business hours (7:30 a.m.-
5:30 p.m. Eastern Time) at the above address.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 8 of the United States Housing Act
of 1937 (the Act) (42 U.S.C. 1437f) authorizes housing assistance to
aid lower income families in obtaining decent, safe, and sanitary
housing. Housing assistance payments are limited by FMRs established by
HUD for different areas. In general, the FMR for an area is the amount
that would be needed to pay the gross rent (shelter rent plus
utilities) of privately owned, decent, safe, and sanitary rental
housing of a modest (non-luxury) nature with suitable amenities.
Publication of FMRs
Section 8(c) of the Act requires the Secretary of HUD to publish
FMRs periodically, but not less frequently than annually. The
Department's regulations provide that HUD will develop FMRs by
publishing proposed FMRs for public comment and, after evaluating the
public comments, publish the final FMRs (see 24 CFR 888.115). Schedule
B of the proposed FY 2000 FMR schedules at the end of this document
lists the FMR levels for Section 8 existing housing. Schedule D lists
FMRs for the rental of manufactured home spaces in the Section 8
Existing certificate and voucher program and the new merged tenant-
based certificate and voucher program in areas where modifications
based on public comments have been approved for FMRs greater than 30
percent of the 2-bedroom FMR.
Method Used to Develop FMRs
FMR Standard
FMRs are gross rent estimates; they include shelter rent and the
cost of utilities, except telephone. HUD sets FMRs to assure that a
sufficient supply of rental housing is available to program
participants. To accomplish this objective, FMRs must be both high
enough to permit a selection of units and neighborhoods and low enough
to serve as many families as possible. The level at which FMRs are set
is expressed as a percentile point within the rent distribution of
standard quality rental housing units. The current definition used is
the 40th percentile rent, the dollar amount below which 40 percent of
the standard quality rental housing units rent. The 40th percentile
rent is drawn from the distribution of rents of units which are
occupied by recent movers (renter households who moved into their unit
within the past 15 months). Newly built units less than two years old
are excluded, and adjustments have been made to correct for the below
market rents of public housing units included in the data base.
Data Sources
HUD used the most accurate and current data available to develop
the FMR estimates. The sources of survey data used for the base-year
estimates are:
(1) The 1990 Census, which provides statistically reliable rent
data for all FMR areas;
(2) The Bureau of the Census' American Housing Surveys (AHSs),
which are used to develop between-Census revisions for the largest
metropolitan areas and which have accuracy comparable to the decennial
Census; and
(3) Random Digit Dialing (RDD) telephone surveys of individual FMR
areas, which are based on a sampling procedure that uses computers to
select statistically random samples of rental housing.
The base-year FMRs are updated using trending factors based on
Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for rents and utilities or HUD regional
rent change factors developed from RDD surveys. Annual average CPI data
are available individually for 96 metropolitan FMR areas. (Buffalo and
New Orleans no longer are surveyed separately in the Consumer Price
Index survey.) RDD regional rent change factors are developed annually
for the metropolitan and nonmetropolitan parts of each of the 10 HUD
regions. The RDD factors are used to update the base year estimates for
all FMR areas that do not have their own local CPI survey.
State Minimum FMRs
FMRs are established at the higher of the local 40th percentile
rent level or the Statewide average of nonmetropolitan counties,
subject to a ceiling rent cap. The State minimum also affects a small
number of metropolitan areas whose rents would otherwise fall below the
State minimum.
Bedroom Size Adjustments
FMRs have been calculated separately for each bedroom size
category. For areas whose FMRs are based on the State minimums, the
rents for each bedroom size are the higher of the rent for the area or
the Statewide average of nonmetropolitan counties for that bedroom
size. For all other FMR areas,
[[Page 24867]]
the bedroom intervals are based on data for the specific area.
Exceptions have been made for some areas with local bedroom size rent
intervals below an acceptable range. For those areas the intervals
selected were the minimums determined after outliers had been excluded
from the distribution of bedroom intervals for all metropolitan areas.
Higher ratios continue to be used for three-bedroom and larger size
units than would result from using the actual market relationships.
This is done to assist the largest, most difficult to house families in
finding program-eligible units.
RDD Surveys
RDD surveys are used to obtain statistically-reliable FMR estimates
for selected FMR areas. This survey technique involves drawing random
samples of renter units occupied by recent movers. RDD surveys exclude
public housing units, other assisted units for which the market rent
cannot be determined, units built in the past two years, seasonal
units, non-cash rental units, and those owned by relatives. A HUD
analysis has shown that the slight downward RDD survey bias caused by
including some rental units that are in substandard condition is almost
exactly offset by the slight upward bias that results from surveying
only units with telephones.
Approximately 8,000-12,000 telephone numbers need to be contacted
to achieve the target survey sample level of 200 eligible recent mover
responses. RDD surveys have a high degree of statistical accuracy;
there is a 95 percent likelihood that the recent mover rent estimates
developed using this approach are within 3 to 4 percent of the actual
rent value. Virtually all of the estimates are within 5 percent of the
actual value.
Today's notice proposes FMRs based on RDD surveys conducted in
late-1998 and early-1999 for the following areas:

San Antonio, TX
AHS Areas
AHSs cover the largest metropolitan areas on a four-year cycle. The
40th percentile rents for these areas are calculated from the
distributions of two-bedroom units occupied by recent movers. Public
housing units, newly constructed units, and units that fail a housing
quality test are excluded from the rental housing distributions before
the FMRs are calculated.
Detailed rent data from the metropolitan AHSs conducted in 1998 are
not yet available. If increases are warranted by data that are
processed in time for the 2000 Final FMRs they will be put into effect
at that time; any proposed decreases will be delayed until the 2001
proposed FMR publication.
Manufactured Home Space FMRs
FMRs for the rental of manufactured home spaces in the Section 8
Existing certificate and voucher program and the new merged tenant-
based certificate and voucher program are 30 percent of the applicable
Section 8 existing housing program FMR for a two-bedroom unit. HUD
accepts public comments requesting modifications of these FMRs where
the 30 percent FMRs are thought to be inadequate. In order to be
accepted as a basis for revising the FMRs, comments must contain
statistically valid survey data that show the 40th percentile space
rent (excluding the cost of utilities) for the entire FMR area.
Manufactured home space FMR revisions are published as final FMRs in
Schedule D. Once approved, the revised manufactured home space FMRs
establish new base year estimates that are updated annually using the
same data used to update the other FMRs.
Request for Comments
HUD seeks public comments on FMR levels for specific areas.
Comments on FMR levels must include sufficient information (including
local data and a full description of the rental housing survey
methodology used) to justify any proposed changes. Changes may be
proposed in all or any one or more of the bedroom-size categories on
the schedule. Recommendations and supporting data must reflect the rent
levels that exist within the entire FMR area.
HUD recommends use of professionally-conducted Random Digit Dialing
(RDD) telephone surveys to test the accuracy of FMRs for areas where
there is a sufficient number of Section 8 units to justify the survey
cost of $10,000-$12,000. Areas with 500 or more program units usually
meet this cost criterion, and areas with fewer units may meet it if
actual two-bedroom rents are significantly different from the FMRs
proposed by HUD. In addition, HUD has developed a version of the RDD
survey methodology for smaller, nonmetropolitan PHAs. This methodology
is designed to be simple enough to be done by the PHA itself, rather
than by professional survey organizations, at a cost of $5,000 or less.
PHAs in nonmetropolitan areas may, in certain circumstances, do
surveys of groups of counties. All grouped county surveys must be
approved in advance by HUD. PHAs are cautioned that the resulting FMRs
will not be identical for the counties surveyed; each individual FMR
area will have a separate FMR based on the relationship of rents in
that area to the combined rents in the cluster of FMR areas. In
addition, PHAs are advised that counties whose FMRs are based on the
State minimum will not have their FMRs revised unless the grouped
survey results show a revised FMR above the State minimum level.
PHAs that plan to use the RDD survey technique should obtain a copy
of the appropriate survey guide. Larger PHAs should request HUD's
survey guide entitled ``Random Digit Dialing Surveys; A Guide to Assist
Larger Public Housing Agencies in Preparing Fair Market Rent
Comments.'' Smaller PHAs should obtain a guide entitled ``Rental
Housing Surveys; A Guide to Assist Smaller Public Housing Agencies in
Preparing Fair Market Rent Comments.'' These guides are available from
HUD USER on 1-800-245-2691, or from HUD's Worldwide Web site, in
Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat format, at the following address:
http://www.huduser.org/datasets/fmr.html.
[[Page 24868]]
HUD prefers, but does not mandate, the use of RDD telephone
surveys, or the more traditional method described in the survey guide
intended for small PHAs along with the simplified RDD methodology.
Other survey methodologies are acceptable as long as the surveys
submitted provide statistically reliable, unbiased estimates of the
40th percentile gross rent. Survey samples should preferably be
randomly drawn from a complete list of rental units for the FMR area.
If this is not feasible, the selected sample must be drawn so as to be
statistically representative of the entire rental housing stock of the
FMR area. In particular, surveys must include units of all rent levels
and be representative by structure type (including single-family,
duplex and other small rental properties), age of housing unit, and
geographic location. The decennial Census should be used as a starting
point and means to verify whether the sample is representative of the
FMR area's rental housing stock.
Local rental housing surveys conducted with alternative methods
must include the following documentation:
--Identification of the 40th percentile gross rent (gross rent is rent
including the cost of utilities) and the actual distribution (or
distributions, if more than one bedroom size is surveyed) of the
surveyed units, rank-ordered by gross rent.
--An explanation of how the rental housing sample was drawn and a copy
of the survey questionnaire, transmittal letter, and any publicity
materials.
--An explanation of how the contract rents of the individual units
surveyed were converted to gross rents. (For RDD-type surveys, HUD
requires use of the Section 8 utility allowance schedule.)
--An explanation of how the survey excluded units built within two
years prior to the survey date.
--The date the rent data were collected so that HUD can apply a
trending factor to update the estimate to the midpoint of the
applicable fiscal year. If the survey has already been trended to this
date, the date the survey was conducted and a description of the
trending factor used.
--Copies of all survey sheets.
Since FMRs are based on standard quality units and units occupied
by recent movers, both of which are difficult to identify and survey,
HUD will accept surveys of all rental units and apply appropriate
adjustments.
Most surveys cover only one- and two-bedroom units, in which case
HUD will make the adjustments for other size units consistent with the
differentials established on the basis of the 1990 Census data for the
FMR area. When three- and four-bedroom units are surveyed separately to
determine FMRs for these unit size categories, the commenter should
multiply the 40th percentile survey rents by 1.087 and 1.077,
respectively, to determine the FMRs. The use of these factors will
produce the same upward adjustments in the rent differentials as those
used in the HUD methodology.
Other Matters
A Finding of No Significant Impact with respect to the environment
as required by the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4321-
4374) is unnecessary, since the Section 8 Existing certificate and
voucher program and the new merged tenant-based certificate and voucher
program are categorically excluded from the Department's National
Environmental Policy Act procedures under 24 CFR 50.19(c)(d).
The undersigned, in accordance with the Regulatory Flexibility Act
(5 U.S.C. 605(b)), hereby certifies that this Notice does not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities,
because FMRs do not change the rent from that which would be charged if
the unit were not in the Section 8 program.
The General Counsel, as the Designated Official under section 6(a)
of Executive Order No. 12611, Federalism, has determined that this
Notice will not involve the preemption of State law by Federal statute
or regulation and does not have Federalism implications. The Fair
Market Rent schedules do not have any substantial direct impact on
States, on the relationship between the Federal government and the
States, or on the distribution of power and responsibility among the
various levels of government.
The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance program number is
14.156, Lower-Income Housing Assistance Program (section 8).
Accordingly, the Fair Market Rent Schedules, which will be codified
in 24 CFR part 888, are proposed to be amended as follows:
Dated: April 30, 1999.
Andrew Cuomo,
Secretary.
Fair Market Rents for the Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments
Program
Schedules B and D--General Explanatory Notes
1. Geographic Coverage
a. Metropolitan Areas.--FMRs are housing market-wide rent estimates
that are intended to provide housing opportunities throughout the
geographic area in which rental housing units are in direct
competition. The FMRs shown in Schedule B are determined for the same
areas as the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) most current
definitions of metropolitan areas, with the exceptions discussed in
paragraph b. HUD uses the OMB Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) and
Primary Metropolitan Statistical Area (PMSA) definitions for FMR areas
because they closely correspond to housing market area definitions.
b. Exceptions to OMB Definitions.--The exceptions are counties
deleted from several large metropolitan areas whose revised OMB
metropolitan area definitions were determined by HUD to be larger than
the housing market areas. The FMRs for the following counties (shown by
the metropolitan area) are calculated separately and are shown in
Schedule B within their respective States under the ``Metropolitan FMR
Areas'' listing:
Metropolitan Area and Counties Deleted
Chicago, IL: DeKalb, Grundy and Kendall Counties
Cincinnati-Hamilton, OH-KY-IN: Brown County, Ohio; Gallatin, Grant and
Pendleton Counties in Kentucky; and Ohio County, Indiana
Dallas, TX: Henderson County
Flagstaff, AZ-UT: Kane County, UT
New Orleans, LA: St. James Parish
Washington, DC-MD-VA-WV: Berkeley and Jefferson Counties in West
Virginia; and Clarke, Culpeper, King George and Warren counties in
Virginia
c. Nonmetropolitan Area FMRs.--FMRs also are established for
nonmetropolitan counties and for county equivalents in the United
States, for nonmetropolitan parts of counties in the New England
states, and for FMR areas in Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and the
Pacific Islands. Nonmetropolitan area FMRs are set at the higher of the
local 40th percentile rent level or the Statewide average of
nonmetropolitan counties. (The State minimum also affects a small
number of metropolitan areas whose rents would
[[Page 24869]]
otherwise fall below the State minimum.)
d. Virginia Independent Cities.--FMRs for the areas in Virginia
shown in the table below were established by combining the Census data
for the nonmetropolitan counties with the data for the independent
cities that are located within the county borders. Because of space
limitations, the FMR listing in Schedule B includes only the name of
the nonmetropolitan county.
The complete definitions of these areas including the independent
cities are as follows:
Virginia Nonmetropolitan County FMR Area and Independent Cities Included
------------------------------------------------------------------------
County Cities
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alleghany................................. Clifton Forge and Covington.
Augusta................................... Staunton and Waynesboro.
Carroll................................... Galax.
Frederick................................. Winchester.
Greensville............................... Emporia.
Henry..................................... Martinsville.
Montgomery................................ Radford.
Rockbridge................................ Buena Vista and Lexington.
Rockingham................................ Harrisonburg.
Southhampton.............................. Franklin.
Wise...................................... Norton.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Bedroom Size Adjustments
Schedule B shows the FMRs for 0-bedroom through 4-bedroom units.
The FMRs for unit sizes larger than 4 bedrooms are calculated by adding
15 percent to the 4-bedroom FMR for each extra bedroom. For example,
the FMR for a 5-bedroom unit is 1.15 times the 4-bedroom FMR, and the
FMR for a 6-bedroom unit is 1.30 times the 4 bedroom FMR. FMRs for
single-room-occupancy (SRO) units are 0.75 times the 0 bedroom FMR.
3. FMRs for Manufactured Home Spaces
FMRs for Section 8 manufactured home spaces in the Section 8
Existing certificate and voucher program and the new merged tenant-
based certificate and voucher program are 30 percent of the two-bedroom
Section 8 existing housing program FMRs, with the exception of the
areas listed in Schedule D whose manufactured home space FMRs have been
modified on the basis of public comments. Once approved, the revised
manufactured home space FMRs establish new base-year estimates that are
updated annually using the same data used to estimate the Section 8
existing housing FMRs. The FMR area definitions used for the rental of
manufactured home spaces in the Section 8 Existing certificate and
voucher program and the new merged tenant-based certificate and voucher
program are the same as the area definitions used for other FMRs.
4. Arrangement of FMR Areas and Identification of Constituent Parts
a. The FMR areas in Schedule B are listed alphabetically by
metropolitan FMR area and by nonmetropolitan county within each State.
The exception FMRs for manufactured home spaces in Schedule D are
listed alphabetically by State.
b. The constituent counties (and New England towns and cities)
included in each metropolitan FMR area are listed immediately following
the listings of the FMR dollar amounts. All constituent parts of a
metropolitan FMR area that are in more than one State can be identified
by consulting the listings for each applicable State.
c. Two nonmetropolitan counties are listed alphabetically on each
line of the nonmetropolitan county listings.
