What the numbers mean in Galva city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Galva city median would spend about 16.8% 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 20.9% of residents and 77.2% of households own their home.
