How is the median home in this (or any) town $860,000, when 80% of the residents make less than $200,000 a year (which is the minimum amount to be able to afford an $860k house)? The numbers are just not adding up... I don't think it's one or two bazillion dollar homes skewing the figures, because if you look at the map below, 90% of the homes for sale are near or above $860k.... <div class="bbImageWrapper js-lbImage" title="housing cost1.jpg" data-src="https://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/attachments/housing-cost1-jpg.1716480835/" data-lb-sidebar-href="" data-lb-caption-extra-html="" data-single-image="1"><img class="bbImage" title="housing cost1.jpg" src="https://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/attachments/housing-cost1-jpg.1716480835/" alt="housing cost1.jpg" width="585" height="441" data-url="" data-zoom-target="1" /></div> <div class="bbImageWrapper js-lbImage" title="housing cost2.jpg" data-src="https://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/attachments/housing-cost2-jpg.1716480836/" data-lb-sidebar-href="" data-lb-caption-extra-html="" data-single-image="1"><img class="bbImage" title="housing cost2.jpg" src="https://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/attachments/housing-cost2-jpg.1716480836/" alt="housing cost2.jpg" width="525" height="256" data-url="" data-zoom-target="1" /></div></blockquote><br> Cancel
