What the numbers mean in Middleton city
Housing cost measured against local earnings.
A household earning the Middleton city median would spend about 19% 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 5.3× the median household income; nationally that ratio sits near 4.5×. Poverty affects 7.7% of residents and 48.3% of households own their home.
