What the numbers mean in Jamestown city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Jamestown city median would spend about 25.2% 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 4.7× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 45.6% of residents and 43.1% of households own their home.
