Category Discussion: Housing Affordability

SustainLane used US Census Bureau data on average housing prices and average income levels to determine city housing affordability. Coming in on top at number one for housing affordability is San Antonio, with an average home price of $89,800, an average annual income of $40,186, and a living wage ordinance. Following close behind are Fort Worth; Arlington, Texas; El Paso; and Memphis. Ironically, housing is generally cheapest in cities with lower Planning/Land Use scores.
