Are USDA loans available in Hawaii?

Yes. About 79% of ZIP codes in Hawaii have their center in a USDA-eligible area. Eligibility is still determined address-by-address, so use the map on this page to check a specific ZIP or neighborhood. Ineligible areas are typically denser cities and inner suburbs.

What is the USDA income limit in Hawaii?

In Hawaii, the 1–4 person household limit ranges from $122,800 to $177,100. The 5–8 person limit ranges from $162,100 to $233,800. Limits vary by county. Switch the map to Income Limits and enter a ZIP to see the exact cap.

Is a whole ZIP code eligible or ineligible?

Neither, officially. USDA scores the exact property — two houses across the street can differ, which does not help you scan neighborhoods. Official property eligibility is decided only through an approved application. This map overlays USDA's ineligible-area boundaries, then tests the geographic center of each ZIP. If that center falls inside an ineligible area, we mark the ZIP as likely not eligible; otherwise likely eligible. State percentages are the share of ZIP centers that pass. Maps are an area-level first look — confirm any house with USDA or a lender.

What else do I need besides location and income?

USDA also requires a primary residence, a single-family (1-unit) property, U.S. citizenship or qualified alien status, and typically a 640+ credit score for streamlined approval. A USDA-approved lender reviews all six criteria at no cost.
