What the numbers mean in Ama CDP
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Ama CDP median would spend about 19.5% 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 3.0× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 13.4% of residents and 86.9% of households own their home.
