What the numbers mean in Colchester city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Colchester city median would spend about 15.5% 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 1.4× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 9.7% of residents and 73.6% of households own their home.
