A typical home is worth about $543,000.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Franklin County is $1,080 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Penhook. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

In the Roanoke, VA metro area, prices sit at 93.6 when the U.S. average is 100. That is a 2024 BEA index.
