A PHA generally sets a payment standard "between 90 percent and 110 percent of the published FMR for that unit size." Id. § 982.503(b). A voucher holder typically pays a landlord 30 percent of her or his adjusted monthly income toward rent; the PHA pays the rent's balance directly to the landlord, so long as a dwelling's actual gross rent is at or below the relevant payment standard. Id. § 982.1(a)(3). If, however, a dwelling's actual rent exceeds the payment standard, the voucher holder pays the balance. Id. A PHA may use the same payment standard amount for all areas within the PHA's jurisdiction, or else "may establish a separate payment standard amount for each designated part of the FMR area." Id. § 982.503(a)(3). B. Problems with FMR Calculations in Metropolitan Areas
