Glassmanor in 2030: where the trends point

If recent trends hold, the median rent will take about 29% of the median income in 2030, about the same as 28% now.

Citytistics projections to 2030: each figure's own trend, blended with the typical trend across the places we rate, eased toward long-run US growth and carried forward from the latest release. The range is where 80% of places landed when we tested the same method on past releases. On projected 2030 affordability, Glassmanor does better than 14% of places. Its projected home value growth beats 34%.
