Winston Salem, NC Section 8 Rent Limits 2026–27 by ZIP Code

For 2026–27, HUD's 2-bedroom figure in Winston Salem ranges from $1,160 (ZIP 27107) to $1,590 (ZIP 27104), with a median of $1,380 across 24 ZIP codes. HUD sets these per ZIP code (Small Area Fair Market Rents), so they differ across the city.
