How much Section 8 can pay by bedroom size in Oklahoma
Your voucher pays the lower of the gross rent and your agency’s payment standard, minus your total tenant payment; the standard is the one for the smaller of your voucher size and the unit’s bedrooms. Standards are normally set at 90% to 110% of HUD’s published fair market rent for the area. Oklahoma’s FY2027 two-bedroom fair market rent runs from $916 in Adair County, OK and 40 other areas to $1,264 in Oklahoma City, OK; three bedrooms, $1,091 in Cotton County, OK and 5 other areas to $1,713 in Oklahoma City, OK.
| Unit | Lowest area | Highest area |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | $638 Custer County, OK and 5 other areas | $958 Oklahoma City, OK |
| 1 bedroom | $700 Adair County, OK and 20 other areas | $1,040 Oklahoma City, OK |
| 2 bedrooms | $916 Adair County, OK and 40 other areas | $1,264 Oklahoma City, OK |
