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 Comanche, that runs from $779 for a studio up to $1,679 for four bedrooms, all five rates in the table above.
Comanche is its own HUD metro area (Lawton, OK), so the rate here is set from rents inside the county rather than a wider region.
Among Oklahoma's 77 counties, Comanche ranks 21st for two-bedroom FMR. That's about 7% above the state median of $937 and within a couple percent of the national median county at $1,018. About 121,777 people live here, 5th in the state.
Rates by ZIP code
Zoom in and the picture changes. HUD's Small Area FMRs put a two-bedroom at $940 in 73501 (Lawton) and $1,370 in 73503 (Fort Sill), with the 15 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 Comanche somewhere between $901 and $1,101. 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.
$1,001 a month is affordable, by HUD's 30% rule, on an income of roughly $40,040 a year. Put another way, $19 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% ($901) | HAP at 100% ($1,001) | HAP at 110% ($1,101) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $2,500 | $750 | $151 | $251 | $351 |
| $4,000 | $1,200 | $0 | $0 | $0 |
