What the numbers mean in Wallington borough

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Wallington borough median would spend about 22.8% 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 6.0× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 12.1% of residents and 38.7% of households own their home.
