What the numbers mean in Aurora town
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Aurora town median would spend about 15.4% 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 2.2× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 27.7% of residents and 47.9% of households own their home.
