What the numbers mean in Athol CDP

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Athol CDP median would spend about 19.8% 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 3.7× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 18.1% of residents and 63.8% of households own their home.
