The short answer

North Logan is home to 11,460 people. Median household income is $89,891 a year and median rent is $1,658 a month, 22.1% of income (a ratio of two medians, not any one household's burden). Rent pressure is lighter than in most places. The median home is valued at $492,600, about 5.5x annual median household income.

The story in North Logan is how fast things are changing. Housing became less affordable between 2019 and 2024: rent went from 18.4% to 22.1% of income. Also notable: Counting remote workers as zero, the average worker spends about 100 hours a year commuting, less than in 97% of places its size.

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, North Logan does better than 25% of places. Its projected home value growth beats 89%.
