What the numbers mean in Meridian city
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Meridian city median would spend about 14.3% 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 1.8× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 11.9% of residents and 58.8% of households own their home.
