Source and interpretation
Source: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey. Five-year estimates summarize a period, not a single date. They are sample estimates and may have substantial uncertainty. Margins of error are not displayed here; these figures do not establish statistically significant differences between places.
Rent burden excludes households whose income percentage could not be computed. It is calculated from household counts in table B25070, not by dividing median rent by median household income. Displayed percentages are rounded to two decimal places.
