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 Kingfisher somewhere between $935 and $1,143. 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.
$1,039 a month is affordable, by HUD's 30% rule, on an income of roughly $41,560 a year. Put another way, $20 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 Kingfisher, that runs from $724 for a studio up to $1,484 for four bedrooms, all five rates in the table above.
Because Kingfisher 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, Cashion included.
Among Oklahoma's 77 counties, Kingfisher ranks 15th for two-bedroom FMR. That's about 13% above the state median of $916 and about 2% below the national median county at $1,063. About 15,430 people live here, 45th in the state.
Rates by ZIP code
Zoom in and the picture changes. HUD's Small Area FMRs put a two-bedroom at $950 in 73734 (Dover) and $1,470 in 73016 (Cashion), with the 7 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.
