What the numbers mean in Slater city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Slater city median would spend about 12% 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 2.5× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 5.4% of residents and 86.6% of households own their home.
