What the numbers mean in Bayonne city
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Bayonne city median would spend about 23.5% 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 5.5× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 14.4% of residents and 37.4% of households own their home.
