Housing Costs


From the Center for Housing Policy:

Paycheck to Paycheck: Wages and the Cost of Housing in America


This website "presents wage information for more than 60 occupations and home prices and rents for nearly 200 metropolitan areas." Metropolitan area charts compare the annual income needed to afford median-priced homes and rental units against the annual incomes of selected generally lower-waged professions. Or, select a profession to view comparisons of income needed for housing in different metropolitan areas.
