What the numbers mean in Seaford city
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Seaford city median would spend about 26.9% 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 4.4× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 18.2% of residents and 49.6% of households own their home.
