What the numbers mean in Elk Horn city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Elk Horn city median would spend about 12.9% 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 2.1× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 15% of residents and 83.7% of households own their home.
