Income Limits
Do I qualify?Click here for the chart. HUD determines income limits by the Area Median Income (AMI), a number based on Raleigh and Cary incomes and calculated annually. The AMI is the "middle" number of all incomes for the area; 50% of people make more than that amount, and 50% make less. The income levels are percentages of that number: any household income at or below 80% of the AMI is considered low-income; above 80% is moderate-income.
