What the numbers mean in Marion city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Marion city 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 2.9× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 24.2% of residents and 46.6% of households own their home.
