Monthly cost vs. price
Start with the typical home: $423,472. Put 20% down and borrow $338,778 at 7.40%, the 30-year fixed average as of October 8, 2026.
That is $2,346 a month in principal and interest.
The median household here earns $76,341 a year, $6,362 a month. So the payment takes 36.9% of income — rated “severe” (Lotvox ZIP bands: under 28% affordable · 28–36% stretched · 36%+ severe).
