At 25% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Against average income of $103,496, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion.
One tract means one number: 4.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
