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.
