The FY 2022 Fair Market Rents for Lincoln County, ME are based on the results of a local rent survey conducted in January, 2021.

The locally conducted survey is more current than the available ACS data. Therefore HUD calculates the locally based survey 2-bedroom FMR using the following steps:

  1. The local survey is adjusted to 2020 dollars by multiplying the survey rent value for 2021 by the annual CPI-U value for 2021 divided by the CPI-U value for January, 2021. This calculation is:

    $1,017 * (258.844/262.231) =

    $1,004

  2. The annually adjusted survey value of $1,004 is trended forward to the mid-point of FY2022 using the Northeast Census region trend factor of 1.0577. This calculation is:

    $1,004 * 1.0577   =

    $1,062
