What the numbers mean in Colonia CDP
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Colonia CDP median would spend about 17.5% 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 3.5× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 5.9% of residents and 88.2% of households own their home.
