What the numbers mean in Dexter CDP
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Dexter CDP median would spend about 20.5% 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 21.6% of residents and 53.2% of households own their home.
