Is Leisure Village East, New Jersey affordable?
Simple answer
It's tight.
Typical rent is $1,535 a month, or $18,420 a year. Typical pay is $49,198 a year. Rent is 37% of that pay. That is over the 30% line. A lot of families would feel the squeeze.
The middle rent among places we list in this state is $1,778 a month. Leisure Village East is lower.
A typical home costs about 4.7 years of typical household pay. That is home value divided by income. It is not a mortgage quote.
The 30% rule is a budget guide. It is not a benefit rule, and it is not your landlord's rule.
Taxes, childcare, and your own rent can change the picture. Benefit rules follow the state, not the city line.
