At $1,257 a month, rents sit 29% under what the rest of Myersville commands. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.8/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 7.0% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

Food insecurity affects 7.2% of adults, 10.6 points below the national rate. Only 11% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Against average income of $152,500, annual rent is only 10%, a wide affordability cushion.

Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
