What the numbers mean in Rockford city
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Rockford city median would spend about 13% 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 2.9× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 4.9% of residents and 72.5% of households own their home.
