HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Boundary County is $1,026 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Bonners Ferry. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

Idaho's prices sit at 95.5 when the U.S. average is 100. This place is not in a metro area with its own index, so this is the state number from BEA for 2024.
