What you would actually pay in Grant Parish

For a two-bedroom in Grant Parish, that puts the likely payment standard somewhere between $895 and $1,093 per month. Confirm the exact figure with the authority issuing your voucher before signing a lease, since anything above the payment standard comes out of your own pocket.
