This indicator shows the ratio between the average spending among households that spent on homeowner expenses and the median household income in the selected location. This includes spending on mortgage interest, property tax, insurance, and maintenance.
Why is this important?
Spending a high percentage of household income on housing can create financial hardship, especially for homeowners with limited incomes. High housing costs can make it hard to afford other expenses for health care, food, transportation and savings. This is linked to increased stress, mental health problems, and increased risk of disease (Healthy People 2030).
