METHODOLOGY FOR CALCULATING AMI AND RENT LEVELS

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-07-21 · resolution

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) is considering a resolution directing the County Mayor or designee to report on the methodology used by HUD to calculate Area Median Income (AMI) for Miami-Dade County and explore alternative methods. The resolution aims to ensure accuracy and reliability for local housing programs, addressing the housing affordability crisis. The current AMI for Miami-Dade County for all families is $89,800, and for a family of four is $136,200. The report is due within 90 days of the resolution's effective date. The Housing Committee forwarded this to the BCC with a favorable recommendation.
