What the numbers mean in Rhodes city
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Rhodes city median would spend about 7.4% 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 7.8% of residents and 85.2% of households own their home.
