What the numbers mean in Mallard city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Mallard city median would spend about 28% 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 1.2× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 15.7% of residents and 78.6% of households own their home.
