What the numbers mean in Buchanan city
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Buchanan city median would spend about 22.3% 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 16.8% of residents and 48.5% of households own their home.
