What the numbers mean in Forest Home CDP

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Forest Home CDP median would spend about 28% 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 8.4× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 6.7% of residents and 35.5% of households own their home.
