What the numbers mean in Taft Southwest CDP

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Taft Southwest CDP median would spend about 30.4% 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.
