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 2026 that's October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026. In Teton, that runs from $1,136 for a studio up to $2,219 for four bedrooms, all five rates in the table above.
Because Teton 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, Driggs included.
Among Idaho's 44 counties, Teton ranks 7th for two-bedroom FMR. That's about 20% above the state median of $1,101 and about 30% above the national median county at $1,018. About 11,813 people live here, 28th in the state.
Rates by ZIP code
Zoom in and the picture changes. HUD's Small Area FMRs put a two-bedroom at $1,300 in 83455 (Victor) and $1,340 in 83422 (Driggs), with the 4 ZIP codes in between. Housing authorities in HUD-designated metros use those ZIP rates instead of the county rate. Everywhere else the ZIP numbers show where rents actually sit, and the county rate stays the official standard.
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 Teton somewhere between $1,191 and $1,455. 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.
$1,323 a month is affordable, by HUD's 30% rule, on an income of roughly $52,920 a year. Put another way, $25 an hour full time.
Worked example for a two-bedroom, assuming the rent equals the payment standard. Tenant pays 30% of monthly income, HUD's housing assistance payment covers the rest.
| Monthly household income | Tenant pays (30%) | HAP at 90% ($1,191) | HAP at 100% ($1,323) | HAP at 110% ($1,455) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $2,500 | $750 | $441 | $573 | $705 |
| $4,000 | $1,200 | $0 | $123 | $255 |
