[How this works](https://realpmgold.multisites.ai/rent-check) ## What does HUD’s FY2027 Fair Market Rent say about Charlotte Hall? Charlotte Hall’s ZIP, 20622, appears in two HUD FY2027 tables. One is the Washington-area Small Area FMR. The other is the St. Mary’s County FMR. HUD’s FY2027 Fair Market Rent is a federal benchmark used for voucher programs. It is not a prediction of what a specific home will rent for. Unit size Washington-area SAFMR, ZIP 20622 St. Mary’s County FMR Efficiency $1,500 $1,328 1 bedroom $1,660 $1,642 2 bedrooms $1,820 $1,787 3 bedrooms $2,310 $2,242 4 bedrooms $2,790 $2,853 Source: HUD FY2027 FMR documentation, retrieved October 29, 2026. HUD’s pages do not say which table governs a given street address. Ask the housing agency that issues the voucher. A [housing choice voucher](https://realpmgold.multisites.ai/glossary/housing-choice-voucher) payment standard starts from these tables. For a number based on your own home, [request a free rental assessment](https://realpmgold.multisites.ai/contact-us). The [market rent](https://realpmgold.multisites.ai/glossary/market-rent) entry explains the difference. ## Which county rules apply in Charlotte Hall? It depends on which side of the county line the home sits. The Maryland People’s Law Library lists no rental license for either St. Mary’s County or Charles County, in a table updated September 22, 2026. Charles County has a countywide program proposed to begin July 1, 2027, and the county says its dates remain subject to final adoption. The St. Mary’s County pages we checked list no such proposal. Check your tax bill, then read the [rental license](https://realpmgold.multisites.ai/glossary/rental-license) entry and our [Southern Maryland rental license guide](https://realpmgold.multisites.ai/landlord-center/southern-maryland-rental-license). ## What is the main park near Charlotte Hall?
