Affordability & income context
Terre Haute: #63 most affordable nationally · income context
At the metro's ACS median household income of $55,380, this 1-bedroom FMR takes 18.7% of annual income. It is well below the 30% affordability guide for a median-income household.
The 2-bedroom figure places Terre Haute in the lower-rent quarter of HUD metro areas, using the same FY2026 HUD schedule as the national comparison.
With 169,030 residents, this is a smaller-metro benchmark rather than a single-neighborhood rent quote.
Its 2-bedroom FMR sits in the lower-rent quarter of HUD metro areas, so the local-income comparison is more informative than the national rank alone.
The studio-through-two-bedroom FMR bands stay below 30% of recorded median income here; the larger-bedroom rows show where that headroom narrows.
ACS median household income lags the FY2026 HUD FMR schedule. The income share is a same-metro cross-source read (Census ACS B19013 vs HUD FMR), not a same-vintage ratio.
