What the numbers mean in Sterlington town

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Sterlington town median would spend about 18% 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 2.9× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 19.6% of residents and 49.8% of households own their home.
