Proposed Fair Market Rents for the
Housing Choice Voucher Program and
Moderate Rehabilitation Single Room
Occupancy Program Fiscal Year 2013
Office of the Assistant
Secretary for Policy Development and
Research, HUD.
ACTION: Notice of Proposed Fiscal Year
(FY) 2013 Fair Market Rents (FMRs).
AGENCY:
Section 8(c)(1) of the United
States Housing Act of 1937 (USHA)
requires the Secretary to publish FMRs
periodically, but not less than annually,
adjusted to be effective on October 1 of
each year. The primary uses of FMRs are
to determine payment standards for the
Housing Choice Voucher (HCV)
program, to determine initial renewal
rents for some expiring project-based
Section 8 contracts, to determine initial
rents for housing assistance payment
contracts in the Moderate Rehabilitation
Single Room Occupancy program, and
to serve as rent ceilings in the HOME
program. Today’s notice provides
proposed FY 2013 FMRs for all areas
that reflect the estimated 40th and 50th
percentile rent levels trended to April 1,
2013. The FY 2013 FMRs are based on
using 5-year, 2006–2010 data collected
by the American Community Survey
(ACS). These data are updated by oneyear ACS data using areas where
statistically valid one-year ACS data is
available. The Consumer Price Index
(CPI) rent and utility indexes are used
to further update the data from 2010 to
the end of 2011. HUD continues to use
ACS data in different ways according to
how many two-bedroom standardquality and recent-mover sample cases
are available in the FMR area or its
Core-Based Statistical Area (CBSA).
The proposed FY 2013 FMR areas are
based on current Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) metropolitan area
definitions and include HUD
modifications that were first used in the
determination of FY 2006 FMR areas.
Changes to the OMB metropolitan area
definitions through December 2009 are
incorporated; there have been no further
metropolitan area definitions changes.
The proposed FY 2013 FMRs in this
notice reflect several updates to the

methodology used to calculate FMRs.
First, HUD has updated the bedroom
ratios used to calculate 0, 1, 3 and 4
bedroom FMRs based on the 2 bedroom
FMR. The new bedroom ratios are
constructed using 2006–2010 5-year
ACS data. The methodology for
calculating the bedroom ratios is very
similar to the method used when the
bedroom ratios were based on 2000
decennial census long-form data.
Second, these FMRs reflect a new trend
factor calculation methodology which
HUD stated would be implemented in
its proposed FY 2012 FMR publication
on August 19, 2011 (76 FR 52058). This
trend factor is based on national gross
rent data and will change annually.
Comment Due Date: September
4, 2012.
DATES:
Interested persons are
invited to submit comments regarding
the proposed FMRs to the Regulations
Division, Office of General Counsel,
