What the numbers mean in La Luz CDP
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the La Luz CDP median would spend about 20.9% 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 1.7× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 15.5% of residents and 72.2% of households own their home.
