What the numbers mean in Blakesburg city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Blakesburg city median would spend about 14.5% 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 1.6× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 20.3% of residents and 67.6% of households own their home.
