2026–27 Section 8 Rent Limits for 60010

Barrington, IL • Lake County • Source: SAFMR

How much will Section 8 pay for rent in 60010?

HUD's FY2027 Small Area Fair Market Rents for 60010 (Barrington, IL), effective October 1, 2026, are $2,520 for a studio, $2,670 for 1 bedroom, $3,020 for 2 bedrooms, $3,880 for 3 bedrooms and $4,440 for 4 bedrooms a month. These are gross rents: rent plus any utilities the tenant pays.

Your housing authority turns these into its payment standard — the most the voucher counts toward rent — normally between 90% and 110% of HUD's figure, so about $2,718–$3,322 for a 2-bedroom here. Moving to Work agencies can set theirs outside that range. You usually pay about 30% of your adjusted income plus any amount the gross rent is above the payment standard, and at move-in your share can't exceed 40% of adjusted monthly income. Confirm the amount with your housing authority.

Cook County Housing Authority's published payment standards for 60010, effective January 1, 2025: $2,190 for a studio, $2,350 for 1 bedroom, $2,650 for 2 bedrooms, $3,390 for 3 bedrooms and $3,980 for 4 bedrooms. These are Cook County Housing Authority's own figures, from its schedule, and apply to vouchers it administers; other housing authorities set their own.
