HUD income limits
Income limits are set at the county level by HUD each year. Properties use 30%, 50%, or 80% of Area Median Income (AMI) to determine eligibility.
To look up your county's limits, visit huduser.gov or search for a specific property listing to see limits relevant to that location.
Quick guide:
- 30% AMI — Extremely low income
- 50% AMI — Very low income (most Section 8)
- 60% AMI — Low income (most LIHTC)
- 80% AMI — Low income (some programs)
