What the numbers mean in Walnut Ridge city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Walnut Ridge city median would spend about 17.9% 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 2.2× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 21.9% of residents and 59.5% of households own their home.
