Start with the typical home: $287,085. Put 20% down and borrow $229,668 at 7.40%, the 30-year fixed average as of October 8, 2026.

That is $1,590 a month in principal and interest.

The median household here earns $51,762 a year, $4,314 a month. So the payment takes 36.9% of income — rated “severe” (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 9.5% in 2000.
