Monthly cost vs. price
Start with the typical home: $137,088. Put 20% down and borrow $109,670 at 7.40%, the 30-year fixed average as of October 8, 2026.
That is $759 a month in principal and interest.
The median household here earns $34,650 a year, $2,888 a month. So the payment takes 26.3% of income — rated “affordable” (Lotvox ZIP bands: under 28% affordable · 28–36% stretched · 36%+ severe).
The line holds today's rate fixed and moves only the price: at that rate, the same share was 17.2% in 2004.
