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 Juab somewhere between $1,227 and $1,499. 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.
$1,363 a month is affordable, by HUD's 30% rule, on an income of roughly $54,520 a year. Put another way, $26 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 Juab, that runs from $1,186 for a studio up to $2,278 for four bedrooms, all five rates in the table above.
This is a metro rate. The county doesn't get one of its own. HUD lumps Juab in with one other county in the Provo-Orem-Lehi metro, Utah County among them, and every one of them gets $1,363 for a two-bedroom. Where you are inside the metro doesn't change the county number. It does change the ZIP number, covered below.
Among Utah's 29 counties, Juab ranks 10th for two-bedroom FMR. That's about 18% above the state median of $1,158 and about 28% above the national median county at $1,063. About 12,586 people live here, 20th in the state.
Rates by ZIP code
