Nearly half of all renter households in the US were cost-burdened in 2023, meaning they paid more than 30% of their income towards housing costs, according to new government data.
Don’t forget that household income is everyone in the house. So if you are all poor college kids with part time jobs making 15-20k a year your household income will still be close to or at the median, even though each of you are individually really poor

That’s not nearly the normal though. Dual income households are the norm by far.
Sure but any part time jobs the kids have also count towards median household income I assume
That’s like a 2 year period in an 18 year living situation.
Kids live at home a lot longer now 😂 way more than two years haha
