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 Logan somewhere between $1,020 and $1,246. 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.

$1,133 a month is affordable, by HUD's 30% rule, on an income of roughly $45,320 a year. Put another way, $22 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 Logan, that runs from $885 for a studio up to $1,894 for four bedrooms, all five rates in the table above.

Because Logan 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, Fredonia included.

Among North Dakota's 53 counties, Logan ranks 9th for two-bedroom FMR. That's about 12% above the state median of $1,014 and about 7% above the national median county at $1,063. About 1,819 people live here, 48th in the state.

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.
