Lakeview Estates in 2030: where the trends point

If recent trends hold, the median rent will take about 19% of the median income in 2030, about the same as 19% 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.

Measure	Latest	2030 projection	Likely range	Avg. per year
Median rent	$751/mo (2024)	$940/mo	$780 to $1,150/mo	+3.9%
Median household income	$46,900 (2024)	$60,500	$51,000 to $71,500	+4.3%
Median home value	$74,700 (2024)	$117,000	$85,000 to $161,000	+7.8%

The median home would be worth 1.9 years of the median income in 2030, against 1.6 now.
