What the numbers mean in Redwood City city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Redwood City city median would spend about 23.5% 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 12.2× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 6.6% of residents and 47.7% of households own their home.
