What the numbers mean in Ellsworth city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Ellsworth city median would spend about 16.1% 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 8.5% of residents and 68.6% of households own their home.
