What a voucher pays here

The voucher doesn't pay the FMR itself. It pays the payment standard. Housing authorities set it anywhere from 90% to 110% of FMR, which puts a two-bedroom standard in Oneida somewhere between $1,000 and $1,222. The tenant pays roughly 30% of their income, the voucher covers the rest up to the standard, and the PHA won't approve a rent above what comparable unassisted units get.

$1,111 a month is affordable, by HUD's 30% rule, on an income of roughly $44,440 a year. Put another way, $21 an hour full time.

Worked example for a two-bedroom renting at the payment standard. The tenant pays 30% of monthly income and the voucher covers the rest.

About this rate

Fair Market Rent is HUD's estimate of what a modest, decent unit rents for in an area, utilities included. It's set once a year and runs October to September. For FY 2027 that's October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. In Oneida, that runs from $908 for a studio up to $1,857 for four bedrooms, all five rates in the table above.

Because Oneida sits outside any HUD metro area, its rate is a county-wide figure built from local rents. One number covers every address in the county, Holbrook included.

Among Idaho's 44 counties, Oneida ranks 25th for two-bedroom FMR. That's within a couple percent of the state median of $1,127 and about 5% above the national median county at $1,063. About 4,768 people live here, 38th in the state.

Rates by ZIP code

HUD also publishes Small Area FMRs by ZIP code. For the 2 ZIP codes it covers in Oneida, the two-bedroom rate is $1,110 across the board, so there's no ZIP-level story here.
