The 100 metros are the 100 metropolitan statistical areas with the largest POPESTIMATE2025 in the Census Bureau Vintage 2025 population estimates. Component counties are the county rows in that file. The metro Fair Market Rent by bedroom is the July 1, 2025 population-weighted mean of the FY2026 county Fair Market Rent, rounded half up.

Rent-to-income equals median gross rent times 12, divided by renter median household income (B25119 renter column), on the same rounding.
