Adjuntas Municipio, PR

Adjuntas publishes a two-bedroom Fair Market Rent of $531 a month against a HUD Median Family Income of $27,900. Within Puerto Rico that is a mid-table record — 49th of 78 municipios on rent, 5.9% below the territory median of $564.

The unusual thing is in the income-limits table below. The Extremely Low Income and Very Low Income rows carry the same figure at every household size, from $10,850 for one person to $20,400 for eight. Every one of Puerto Rico's 78 records does this. None of the other 4,686 records in this dataset does.

Low Income (80%)$17,300$19,800$22,250$24,700$26,700$28,700$30,650$32,650

These are HUD income limits for the Adjuntas Municipio, PR Exception Area area. They are thresholds published by HUD, not an eligibility determination: individual programs apply their own rules, and adjusted-income definitions (deductions, allowances, and which household members count) can change whether a given household qualifies.

The Extremely Low and Very Low rows carry the same numbers

Reading down the table, Extremely Low Income and Very Low Income are $10,850, $12,400, $13,950, $15,450, $16,700, $17,950, $19,200 and $20,400 — the same eight figures twice. Only the Low Income row, $17,300 to $32,650, differs.

This is not a transcription problem and it is not specific to Adjuntas. Across the 4,764 records GovCalculator publishes, exactly 78 have identical Extremely Low and Very Low limits, and they are exactly Puerto Rico's 78 municipios. GovCalculator reports the published figures as HUD sets them and does not reconstruct how they were derived; HUD publishes the derivation with its income-limits dataset.

The practical consequence is worth stating plainly: on this page, a household's income cannot place it below the Very Low threshold but above the Extremely Low one, because there is no gap between them. Any program rule that distinguishes those two categories will need something other than these limits to do it.

Rank in state
49 of 78

The two-bedroom Fair Market Rent applicable to Adjuntas Municipio is below the state median for PR. It ranks 49 of 78 county records by 2BR FMR.

Rank 1 is the highest 2BR FMR in the state, and county records with an identical rent share a rank. “Approximately at the state median” means within 2% of it. The median is taken across the 78 county records published for PR — it is not weighted by households or population, and it is not a median over unique HUD areas, so a HUD area covering several counties counts once per county record.

The whole Puerto Rico scale sits below the rest of the dataset

Adjuntas ranks 49th of 78 within Puerto Rico, but 30th lowest of all 4,764 records on rent and 6th lowest on area income. Both readings are correct; they use different comparison sets, and this site's ranking uses the territory's own records because that is the population HUD publishes and administers against.

The gap is not marginal. Forty-seven of Puerto Rico's 78 records publish a two-bedroom Fair Market Rent under $600, and no record anywhere else in the dataset does. Forty-five are under $40,000 in area median family income, against a non-Puerto-Rico median of $95,000 — and only five records outside Puerto Rico fall under $40,000 at all, among them Wolfe County, Kentucky at $39,000. The territory floor is lower again: Arroyo Municipio holds the dataset's lowest figures on both measures, $475 and $26,300.

This is a ratio between two HUD benchmarks for the Adjuntas Municipio, PR Exception Area area: the annualized two-bedroom Fair Market Rent divided by HUD Median Family Income. It is not a measured rent burden, not the share of income any particular family spends on housing, and not an affordability or eligibility determination.

Uses a fixed +10% buffer over the local HUD Median Family Income (v1.0). The buffer is a GovCalculator heuristic, not a government threshold.

Purchasing power decision tool (CPI-U monthly)

This module converts an annual income from 2025-07 into its 2026-07 equivalent using the CPI-U series, then compares it to the HUD Median Family Income for Adjuntas Municipio, PR.

The baseline is HUD's Median Family Income for the HUD area, not a Census median household income. The CPI-U series is the official BLS CUUR0000SA0 index, unadjusted; months BLS did not publish are left out rather than interpolated.

HUD Median Family Income (annual): $27,900

Use annual income to align with HUD Median Family Income, which is an annual HUD area benchmark.

Methodology & assumptions (v1.0)

Adjusted income is computed as Income × CPI(to) / CPI(from) using CPI-U monthly index values embedded in this page.

  • CPI-U is an aggregate price index for urban consumers; individual consumption patterns may differ.
  • No interpolation is applied; both selected months must exist in the dataset.
  • HUD Median Family Income is treated as the annual reference benchmark for the applicable HUD area, compared to adjusted annual income.
  • This module performs a historical transformation, not a forecast.

Sources & methodology

HUD income limits and Fair Market Rents are taken from the fiscal-year tables HUD publishes per HUD-defined area — which can include more than one county — and joined to this county record. State comparisons are computed across the 2BR Fair Market Rents of the county records in the same state; the median uses the middle value and is not weighted by households or population, rank 1 is the highest rent in the state, and county records with identical rents share a rank.

The income figure used throughout this page is HUD's Median Family Income for the HUD area above. It is not a Census median household income and the two are not interchangeable.

The CPI-U series is the official BLS CUUR0000SA0 index, not seasonally adjusted, taken from the published BLS series: 36 published monthly observations. Months BLS did not publish are not interpolated. IRS Publication 15-T is cited as an official reference only — no federal withholding is calculated anywhere on this site.

Verify eligibility requirements with local program administrators: household size, deductions, and program-specific definitions can materially change outcomes.

FAQ

Which HUD area do the figures for Adjuntas Municipio, PR come from?

HUD assigns this county to the Adjuntas Municipio, PR Exception Area area (code NCNTY72001N72001). A HUD area can cover more than one county, so the area name is not always identical to the county name.

Which fiscal years are shown on this page?

Income limits are FY2026 and Fair Market Rents are FY2026.

What is the Fair Market Rent (2BR) here?

The two-bedroom Fair Market Rent is $531 per month. Fair Market Rents for studio through four-bedroom units are listed in the bedroom table above.

Do the income limits on this page decide whether I qualify?

No. They are the thresholds HUD publishes for this area. Programs apply their own rules, and adjusted-income definitions — deductions, allowances, and which household members count — can change the outcome for a given household.

What does the FMR-to-median-family-income share mean?

It is the annualized two-bedroom Fair Market Rent divided by HUD Median Family Income for the same area, here 22.8%. Both inputs are HUD area benchmarks, so it is not a measured rent burden and not an affordability determination.

How does Adjuntas Municipio rank within PR?

Its applicable two-bedroom Fair Market Rent ranks 49 of 78 county records in PR. Rank 1 is the highest rent in the state and county records with identical rents share a rank. That places it below the state median.

Is the CPI-based purchasing power module a forecast?

No. It is a historical adjustment using CPI-U monthly index values: Adjusted = Income × CPI(to) / CPI(from). It does not predict future inflation.

Does this page calculate federal income tax withholding?

No. GovCalculator does not compute federal withholding anywhere. IRS Publication 15-T is cited as an official reference only; its withholding methods and tables are not ingested or modelled here.

The Extremely Low Income and Very Low Income limits look identical. Is that right?

Yes. On this page the two rows carry the same dollar amount at every household size, from $10,850 for one person to $20,400 for eight. It is not unique to Adjuntas: all 78 Puerto Rico records in this dataset show the same pattern, and none of the other 4,686 records do. In practice it means these two thresholds cannot separate one household from another here — only the Low Income row, $17,300 to $32,650, differs. HUD publishes the methodology behind the limits with its income-limits dataset.

These figures look far lower than other pages on this site. Is that right?

Yes. Puerto Rico's published figures sit below the rest of the dataset on both measures: 47 of its 78 records have a two-bedroom Fair Market Rent under $600 and no record outside Puerto Rico does, while 45 are under $40,000 in HUD Median Family Income against a median of $95,000 elsewhere. Rankings on this page compare Adjuntas against Puerto Rico's own 78 records, which is why it reads as mid-table here and near the floor when measured against all 4,764.
