What the numbers mean in Brunswick town
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Brunswick town median would spend about 32.5% 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 2.9× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 57.7% of residents and 45% of households own their home.
