Data on county-level fair market rent (FMR) prices for 2019 were available here: https://www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/fmr/fmrs/FY2019_code/select_Geography.odn. FMRs were calculated by HUD for all U.S. counties and municipalities in Puerto Rico to determine the amount of housing funds per person, based on the cost of a 2-bedroom unit (because of assumptions made for the HOPWA funding formula). FMRs were weighted based on county (municipality, for Puerto Rico) population size to account for differences in cost of living by urbanicity. Some counties in New England were further divided into town-based metro area definitions; these were assumed to be separate and distinct entities in FMR calculations. Jurisdictions are grouped into three categories: “High” includes jurisdictions for which the bounds of the 95% CIs exceed the bounds of the 95% CI of the national estimate; “Medium” includes jurisdictions for which the 95% CI overlaps with that of the national estimate; “Low” includes jurisdictions for which the bounds of the 95% CIs fall below the bounds of the 95% CIs of the national estimate.
