State rent reports: HUD fair market rents for fiscal 2027
From HUD's fiscal 2027 Fair Market Rents, generally effective October 1, 2026
Each year HUD publishes a Fair Market Rent for every metro area and rural county: an estimate of the 40th percentile gross rent, meaning rent plus basic utilities, for a standard-quality home of each size. The table shows each state's two-bedroom average for fiscal 2027, weighted by population, and the change from fiscal 2026. Open a state for every metro area and home size.

What these numbers mean
How this report is built
The metro rows show HUD's published figures. Statewide and rural averages weight each county or town by its population in HUD's fiscal 2027 file, and the change compares the same counties with the same weights in both years. Sources: HUD Fair Market Rents, FY26_FMRs_revised.xlsx, FY27_FMRs.xlsx.
