What the numbers mean in Collins city
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Collins city median would spend about 15.7% 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 1.9× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 9% of residents and 74.7% of households own their home.
