What the numbers mean in Phelan CDP
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Phelan CDP median would spend about 23.3% 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 4.3× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 14.5% of residents and 80.6% of households own their home.
