What the numbers mean in East Pittsburgh borough

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the East Pittsburgh borough median would spend about 22.9% 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.
