Boise City, ID: 2-bedroom payment standards across 44 ZIP codes

HUD's FY2026 Small Area Fair Market Rents for Boise City, ID HUD Metro FMR Area range from $1,660 to $2,240 for a 2-bedroom. The 90th-percentile ZIP code runs 1.17× the 10th — a gap of $276 a month — which ranks 232th widest of the 247 HUD metro areas we compare.

ZIP-level standards are optional here. Boise City, ID is not one of HUD's 65 designated Small Area FMR areas, so a housing authority may set one payment standard for the whole area, or adopt ZIP-level exception standards of up to 110% of a ZIP's published SAFMR. Where a single area-wide standard is used, the 7 ZIP codes below marked "above 110%" sit above the highest ceiling that basic policy reaches. Confirm what applies with the PHA that issued the voucher.

Every ZIP code, ranked

The payment-standard column is HUD's published 90–110% band for that ZIP code — the range a housing authority may adopt without HUD approval. Your PHA sets the exact figure. The final column compares each ZIP to the area median; ZIP codes marked above 110% exceed 110% of that median — where a housing authority sets a single area-wide standard, those sit above the highest ceiling basic policy reaches.

Heads up: The figure above is the HUD Fair Market Rent. Your local Public Housing Authority (PHA) sets the actual payment standard — usually between 90% and 110% of it — so confirm your exact amount with the PHA that issued the voucher.

How Boise City, ID compares

Its internal spread of 1.17× (p90 ÷ p10) ranks 232 of 247 HUD metro FMR areas, against a median of 1.37× and a national high of 1.77×. On the steadier p75 ÷ p25 measure it is 1.03×. Note that this area's 90th or 10th percentile lands exactly on its highest or lowest ZIP code, so a single ZIP is carrying the p90/p10 figure — the p75/p25 measure is the better read here.

A note on what this does not mean: a higher payment standard does not increase the assistance a household receives. It raises the ceiling on the rent a voucher can cover, while the household still pays roughly 30% of adjusted income. Figures are ZIP-weighted, not renter-weighted, and rest on 2019–2023 American Community Survey data trended forward.

This page shows official HUD Fair Market Rent data for general educational use — it is not legal, financial, or housing advice, and is not a guarantee of any voucher amount. Your local Public Housing Authority sets the actual payment standard and approves rents. Always confirm with your PHA and the official HUD FMR data.
