What the numbers mean in Yakima city

Housing cost measured against local earnings.

A household earning the Yakima city median would spend about 21.8% 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 4.6× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 17% of residents and 53.5% of households own their home.
