What the numbers mean in West York borough
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the West York borough median would spend about 17% 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 1.7× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 12.8% of residents and 49.6% of households own their home.
