What the numbers mean in Gowrie city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Gowrie city median would spend about 12.1% 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 1.3× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 8.9% of residents and 82.7% of households own their home.
