What the numbers mean in De Soto city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the De Soto city median would spend about 21.5% 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 3.1× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 14.7% of residents and 58.9% of households own their home.
