What the numbers mean in Claymont CDP
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Claymont CDP median would spend about 20.4% 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 3.5× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 10.2% of residents and 55.6% of households own their home.
