Affordable Housing

This indicator shows the percentage of affordable housing units sold based on the median teacher's salary.

Why is this important?

Spending a high percentage of household income on housing can create financial hardship, especially for lower-income homeowners. With a limited income, high monthly housing costs may not leave enough money for other expenses, such as food, transportation and medical. Moreover, high housing costs reduce the proportion of income a household can allocate to savings each month.
