What the numbers mean in Fayetteville city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Fayetteville city median would spend about 20.4% of gross income on the median rent. The 30% mark is the federal threshold for cost burden, so anything above it signals a stretched rental market. The median home costs 5.5× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 21.4% of residents and 41.9% of households own their home.
