What the numbers mean in Avalon borough
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Avalon borough median would spend about 13.5% 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 12.2× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 3.7% of residents and 94.6% of households own their home.
