What the numbers mean in Geneva city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Geneva city median would spend about 15.9% 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 3.0× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 2.5% of residents and 83.7% of households own their home.
