What the numbers mean in Asheboro city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Asheboro city median would spend about 21.1% 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 3.3× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 20.2% of residents and 46.6% of households own their home.
