Method and provenance

ACS 2024 five-year survey estimates (2020–2024), not current prices. Direct estimates may have 90% margins of error shown where available. The home-value-to-income ratio and renter cost-burden rate are derived; no MOE is calculated for either. Missing or suppressed values are unavailable, not zero. Parish rankings are descriptive, not an affordability or suitability recommendation.
