Rank in state
Tied at 109 of 133

The two-bedroom Fair Market Rent applicable to Danville city is below the state median for VA. It is tied at rank 109 of 133 county records by 2BR FMR, sharing that rank with 24 other county records at the same rent.

The other 1 record in this HUD area use the same 2BR FMR and therefore share this rank. The statewide tie also includes records from other HUD areas.

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 133 county records published for VA — 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.

Purchasing power status

  • Adjusted income is near the local median and/or purchasing power decreased materially.
  • This suggests moderate affordability risk under CPI-U adjustment assumptions.
Target income for “STABLE”

Gap from adjusted: $5,010
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 Danville city, VA.

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): $75,500

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 purchasing power module applies a historical CPI ratio: Adjusted = Nominal × CPI(to) / CPI(from). No interpolation is applied and missing months are not imputed; CPI-U is a historical index, not a forecast. The “STABLE” target adds a fixed +10% buffer over the local HUD Median Family Income — that buffer is a GovCalculator heuristic, not a HUD, BLS or IRS determination.

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 Danville city, VA come from?

HUD assigns this county to the Pittsylvania County-Danville city, VA HUD Nonmetro FMR Area area (code NCNTY51143N51143). 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 $914 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 14.5%. Both inputs are HUD area benchmarks, so it is not a measured rent burden and not an affordability determination.

How does Danville city rank within VA?

Its applicable two-bedroom Fair Market Rent is tied at rank 109 of 133 county records in VA, shared with 24 other county records at the same rent. 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.
