What the numbers mean in Polkville town
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Polkville town median would spend about 16% 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 1.5× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 14.7% of residents and 86.8% of households own their home.
