Source: HUD FY2026 Multifamily Tax Subsidy Project income limits (MTSP-Data-FY26 and MTSP-IncAvg-Data-FY26, HUD files dated March 27, 2026). Rents: 30% of the limit for 1 person (studio) or 1.5 people per bedroom, averaging adjacent sizes for fractional counts, divided by 12 and rounded down (IRS Publication 5913, Form 8823 Guide). State agencies publish their own charts and audit against them; some round differently.

HERA Special limits apply in this area. This is a "HUD hold harmless impacted" area under IRC 142(d)(2)(E), so projects placed in service here by December 31, 2008 use these higher limits instead: four-person $59,580 at 60% and $49,650 at 50%, which puts a 60% two-bedroom at $1,341.
