Method and limitations
The primary measure divides ACS median home value (B25077_001E) by ACS median household income (B19013_001E). It is a descriptive comparison, not a household affordability assessment; its inputs have different universes. Renter burden is the share of renter-occupied units paying cash rent in the four ACS B25070 gross-rent-as-income bands at or above 30 percent, among that table’s total.
ACS estimates are from the 2024 5-year release. Source-measure margins of error (MOEs) are 90-percent-confidence ACS MOEs. No MOE is calculated for the displayed ratio or rate. Unavailable values are marked separately from valid zero values; calculated values can be unavailable when an input is missing, suppressed, invalid, or has a zero denominator.
