What the numbers mean in West Elmira CDP

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the West Elmira CDP median would spend about 16% 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 1.8× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 4.1% of residents and 88.5% of households own their home.
