    Now include property taxes and homeowners insurance. Most of Texas would shift bright fucking red.

    Wow. Get why people say Chicago is affordable. Didn’t even impact the surrounding counties like other cities.

    Fun bit for the west tip of Maryland, that’s a resort area so lots of people from NOVA, DC, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, etc… have vacation homes there, greatly inflating the median home price.

      It’s the same with the red spot in north-western Michigan. A lot of cottages for rich people from the southern cities in michigan.

    Missouri is weird

    None of that is around St Louis or Kansas City

    I wonder what role property taxes play in this. Illinois has some of the highest property taxes in the country

      The areas of Missouri are just low income. I’m from Kansas and I noticed a couple of our yellow counties are college towns.

        That is interesting

        My mindset while looking at the graph is ridiculously out of control housing prices, but the inverse would also be true of low incomes as well

        Certainly makes me feel for those where both situations are true

      It’s average home prices vs average wages. Things like property taxes and cost of living aren’t included.

        That’s what I was mostly interested in, how property taxes affect home values
