All data comes from U.S. Census Bureau.
In between the decennial census, census data is estimated using the American Community Survey 5-year estimates. An update is released each year and uses new information to more accurately estimate the population in the years since the last census. The percentages of rent-burdened households were made using “GROSS RENT AS A PERCENTAGE OF HOUSEHOLD INCOME IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS” [Table B25070], adding the number of households spending 30% or more of their income, then dividing by the total number of households that rent. Percentages of moderately rent-burdened households specifically used 30.0 to 49.9 percent, while percentages of severely rent-burdened households specifically used 50.0 percent or greater.
