What the numbers mean in St. James city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the St. James city median would spend about 19.3% 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 2.3× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 20.6% of residents and 57% of households own their home.
