For Final FY 2022, State Minimum rents are based on the lower of
the population-weighted median state nonmetropolitan unadjusted 2-bedroom FMR,
or the population-weighted median U.S. nonmetropolitan unadjusted 2-bedroom FMR.
The table below illustrates how the population-weighted median state nonmetropolitan unadjusted 2-bedroom FMR
is derived for New Hampshire. The population-weighted median unadjusted nonmetropolitan 2-bedroom FMR for
a state is the 2-bedroom FMR where half of a state's
nonmetropolitan population lives in counties with the same or
lower 2-bedroom FMRs, and half of the nonmetropolitan population lives in counties with the same or higher 2-bedroom
FMRs. The nonmetropolitan population of New Hampshire is 496,420, and half of the
nonmetropolitan population of New Hampshire is 248,210.
In the table below, the unadjusted 2-bedroom FMRs for the nonmetropolitan counties of New Hampshire
are arranged in ascending order, and the cumulative population of the counties at each FMR is listed
in the last column. The median unadjusted nonmetropolitan 2-bedroom FMR is the first FMR listed in
the table where the cumulative population of counties with that FMR or less first exceeds one-half
of the nonmetropolitan population, or 248,210.
The row of the table containing the median unadjusted nonmetropolitan 2-bedroom FMR is in bold.
