If recent trends hold, the median rent will take about 17% of the median income in 2030, about the same as 17% 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.

Median household income	$67,083 (2024)	$83,500	$71,000 to $99,000	+3.8%
Median home value	$162,700 (2024)	$233,000	$169,000 to $321,000	+6.2%
Population	3,983 (2025)	3,990	3,830 to 4,160	+0.0%

The median home would be worth 2.8 years of the median income in 2030, against 2.4 now.
