Asking rents: Zillow's index

HUD fair market rents for the metro
HUD sets fair market rents for the whole Provo-Orem-Lehi, UT MSA (Utah County and Juab County), not city by city. They are used for housing vouchers and other programs and include basic utilities. A voucher holder in Springville is generally working from these figures.

Who rents, and what they pay
The Census Bureau's American Community Survey counted about 3,111 renter households in Springville (margin of error ±370), or 28.3% of occupied homes. That is the 6th-highest renter share of the 10 Utah County cities we cover.
Tenants reported a median gross rent of $1,572 a month (±$69), the 7th-highest of those cities. Gross rent includes utilities the tenant pays and covers every renter household, including long-time tenants on older leases. Those older leases help explain why it runs below Zillow's asking-rent index here.
The survey's rental vacancy rate was 2.2%, which points to a tight market where vacant units are scarce. And 35.4% of renters paid 35% or more of their household income on rent (±6.4 points).
