What the numbers mean in Eagle Lake city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Eagle Lake city median would spend about 18.5% 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 1.5× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 11.2% of residents and 84.8% of households own their home.
