What the numbers mean in Rocky Point CDP
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Rocky Point CDP median would spend about 15.5% 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 2.2× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 37.8% of residents and 75.2% of households own their home.
