SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In addition to being published in the Federal Register, these data will be available electronically from the HUD data information page: https:// www.huduser.org/datasets/aaf.html. I. Methodology AAFs are calculated using CPI data on rents and utilities for all metropolitan areas that are specifically surveyed for the CPI. AAFs for other areas use the more general CPI for rents and utilities calculated for the four Census Regions, Northeast, South, Midwest, and West. AAFs are rent change factors. Two types of AAFs are calculated. One type is a gross rent change factor that should be used when the primary utility (normally heating) is included in the rent. The other type is a shelter rent (i.e., rents without utilities) factor that should be used when the primary utility is not included in rent. In the past, decennial census data were used to establish the relationship between gross rents and shelter rents. This relationship was updated each year based on census data revealing the percentage of renters paying for heat by area. This update process is no longer necessary. Beginning with the fiscal year (FY) 2008 AAFs, the American Community Survey (ACS) data was used to re-establish the relationship between gross rents and shelter rents. Each year annual ACS data will be used to revise this relationship. The annual ACS data, however, only provides coverage for large metropolitan areas, those with a population of more than 65,000.1 CPI Surveys For specific metropolitan areas where CPI surveys are conducted, changes in the shelter rent and utilities components are calculated based on the most recent CPI annual average change data. In this publication, the rent and utility CPIs for metropolitan areas are based on changes in the index from 2005 to 2006. The ‘‘Highest Cost Utility Included’’ column in Schedule C is calculated by weighting the rent and utility change 1 Three nonmetropolitan counties that did not have American Community Survey data, but are included under the old area definitions of the Consumer Price Index (CPI), will have to use regional CPI data. These Counties are Hood County, Texas; Culpeper County, Virginia; and King George County, Virginia. E:\FR\FM\22JAN1.SGM 22JAN1
