What the numbers mean in Bell city
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Bell city median would spend about 30.4% 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 9.3× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 22.8% of residents and 26.7% of households own their home.
