Housing and Urban Development Income Guidelines - effective April 27, 2009

The following chart represents HUD income limits for Dallas County.  Please call the Housing and Human Services Department for updates at 972-721-4800.

Extremely Low Income:  30% of the area median family income or below

Low Income: 50 % of the area median family income or below

Moderate Income: 80% of the area median family income or below

Median Income is defined as the middle income level at which one-half of all households in the community earn the money, and one-half of all households earn less.

The median area family income is estimated by HUD on a local basis, and is further broken down according to family size.  Based on its location, the City of Irving uses Fiscal Year 2009 Dallas County Area Median Family Income Limits as illustrated in table below.  HUD updates these income limits annually.
