What the numbers mean in Bear CDP
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Bear CDP median would spend about 22.6% 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 3.1× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 9.7% of residents and 64.3% of households own their home.
