21     with a gross household income that is less than 80% of the
22     median household income within the county or primary
23     metropolitan statistical area;
24         (ii) totaling the number of rental units in each local
25     government that are affordable to households with a gross

27     household income within the county or primary metropolitan
28     statistical area;
29         (iii) adding the number of for-sale and rental units
