What the numbers mean in New Canaan CDP

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the New Canaan CDP median would spend about 25.7% 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 6.8× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 4.2% of residents and 64.2% of households own their home.
