Simple answer

It's tight.

Typical rent is $887 a month, or $10,644 a year. Typical pay is $30,673 a year. Rent is 35% 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 $1,618 a month. Madison is lower.

A typical home costs about 2.6 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.
