HUD Estimated Metropolitan Area Median Family Income Listing

The listing shows the HUD estimate for the fiscal year that corresponds to the year for which the loan application data are reported. For 1997 and years thereafter, the listing includes median family incomes for non-metro areas by state. This information is calculated by taking the median family incomes of all census tracts by state outside of the metropolitan area boundaries. The 2003 median family income figures on this site differ slightly, for several statewide non-metropolitan areas, from data posted on the Census web site or available from an outside vendor. These data differences are minor and would not affect our evaluation of an institution’s performance. When doing their analyses, examiners will accept whichever of these data an institution used.
