What the numbers mean in Paton city
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Paton city median would spend about 9.6% 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 1.1× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 6.2% of residents and 85.1% of households own their home.
