    Methodology

    What the state figure shows

    The FHFA sets the limit by county. For each state we show the median of its counties and the minimum and maximum among them; the map uses the median. Your county’s exact limit is on its page.

    Before you use this number

    • It caps the loan, not the price of the home.

    • The limits for 2, 3 and 4 units are higher; they are on each county’s page.

    • Alaska, Hawaii, Guam and the Virgin Islands have higher baseline limits.
