How to read these figures
The figures are five-year survey estimates covering 2020 through 2024, not current asking rents, active listings or verified prices for a specific address. ZCTAs are Census geographies that approximate postal ZIP code areas and can cross county lines. Gross rent includes utilities when the renter pays them. The rent-to-income share compares two independent medians; it is not the typical household's actual share.
