What the numbers mean in Tripoli city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Tripoli city median would spend about 14% 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 1.5× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 2.9% of residents and 83.1% of households own their home.
