What the numbers mean in Half Moon CDP
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Half Moon CDP median would spend about 18.5% 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 2.8× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 12.4% of residents and 77.9% of households own their home.
