The chart states the rule in its column heads and footnotes: 'Efficiency (1 person), 1 BR (2 persons), 2 BR (3 persons)', the 60% and 80% rents 'calculated by Housing' from the corresponding income limit, i.e. 30% of the 1-, 2- or 3-person income limit / 12, rounded down to the dollar (the 30%, 50% and 65% rows are HUD's own HOME rents and are not used). Verified: the rule reproduces every published 60% and 80% efficiency, 1BR and 2BR rent of the 2022-2026 charts (2026: 60% $56,460 x 0.30 / 12 = $1,411.50 -> $1,411, $64,560 -> $1,614, $72,600 -> $1,815; 80% $74,800 -> $1,870, $85,450 -> $2,136.25 -> $2,136, $96,150 -> $2,403.75 -> $2,403; 2024: 60% $1,323 / $1,512 / $1,701, 80% $1,712 / $1,956 / $2,201), the 1-, 2- and 3-person 60% and 80% rents of the City's Development Incentive Programs' Rental Rates of 2020, 2021 and 2022 (2020: $1,026 / $1,171 / $1,318 and $1,367 / $1,562 / $1,757; those tables price each bedroom count one household member lower than the HOME chart, so their 'Two Bedroom' equals the HOME chart's 1 BR and only the 1-, 2- and 3-person cells are used), the 2019 Development Agreement rates ($994, $1,278, $1,321) and, with that sheet's own nearest-dollar rounding, the published 2015 80% row ($43,050 -> $1,076.25 -> $1,076; $55,350 -> $1,383.75 -> $1,384). The City prints no 40% rent of its own (the 2025 and 2026 charts carry a TDHCA 40% row that prices a 1BR at 1.5 persons), so every 40% rent is derived from the chart's 40% income row by the same rule; the 60% rents of 2015-2019 and 2023 and the 80% rents of 2016-2019, years whose charts print income limits only, are derived the same way (2016-2018 have no published City rent at all; nearest-dollar rounding would raise some of their cells by $1, listed per year). 2020: NHCD's HOME rent sheet's 80% row ($1,368 / $1,560 / $1,747) does not follow from any published 2020 income row and gives way to the Development Incentive table's $1,367 / $1,562 / $1,757.
