What the numbers mean in Clairton city
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Clairton city median would spend about 28% 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 1.5× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 29.9% of residents and 59.8% of households own their home.
