What the numbers mean in Alto town
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Alto town median would spend about 10.5% 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 3.1× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 36.6% of residents and 41.7% of households own their home.
