What the numbers mean in Montclair city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Montclair city median would spend about 27.7% 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 7.2× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 16.7% of residents and 53.9% of households own their home.
