What the numbers mean in Bel Air town

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Bel Air town median would spend about 26.2% 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 4.3× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 15.4% of residents and 58.9% of households own their home.
