Housing authorities that may serve this ZIP

HUD does not publish each PHA’s adopted payment standard. Confirm which agency administers the voucher before you underwrite.

Investor

Use the 2BR/3BR SAFMR as a voucher-underwriting check on 2–4 and small 5–50 unit product, not as market rent. If Voucher Spread™ is published on this ZIP, the dollar gap is the underwriting input. Then open live Georgia inventory — do not stop at the HUD table.

Landlord / PHA

Payment standard ≠ asking rent. Confirm the adopted 90–110% schedule and the utility allowance. Rent reasonableness still applies even when asking rent sits inside the band.

Voucher household

The figures are gross-rent benchmarks. A unit at the SAFMR with tenant-paid utilities will clear less contract rent than the headline number. Ask the PHA for the current utility schedule before you tour.

These are gross rents (contract rent + essential utilities), effective October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. The PHA’s payment standard is usually 90–110% of SAFMR, not the SAFMR itself.

How much will Section 8 pay for a 2-bedroom in 30087?

Actual HAP depends on the adopted PHA schedule, the utility allowance, household income, and rent reasonableness. Confirm with the administering PHA (in much of Georgia that is DCA; inside city programs it may be a local authority).

What is the Section 8 payment standard in 30087?

HUD does not publish each PHA’s adopted payment standard. Jeff Crowe CRE shows the statutory 90–110% band around the FY2027 SAFMR for ZIP 30087: 1BR $1,575–$1,925, 2BR $1,719–$2,101, 3BR $2,052–$2,508. Ask the local housing authority for the current schedule and utility allowance.

Is the SAFMR the same as the Section 8 payment standard?

No. On Jeff Crowe CRE, SAFMR is HUD’s ZIP-level Fair Market Rent. The payment standard is what the PHA adopts, usually between 90% and 110% of SAFMR. Contract rent can differ again after the utility allowance. Asking rent can sit above the payment standard; the household pays the gap if the PHA allows it.
