What the numbers mean in Southwest Harbor CDP

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Southwest Harbor CDP median would spend about 34.4% 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 12.9× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 12.8% of residents and 26.1% of households own their home.
