What the numbers mean in Hockessin CDP

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Hockessin CDP median would spend about 20.7% 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 3.2× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 1.3% of residents and 91.4% of households own their home.
