What the numbers mean in Vallejo city
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Vallejo city median would spend about 27% 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 6.2× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 12% of residents and 58.9% of households own their home.
