Typical home value divided by the average annual wage of one covered job.

A percentile here is a min-max scaling of average rank: the smallest published value in the cohort is 0 and the largest is 100, and tied values share the average of the ranks they span. It is not the share of entities below the value, so 0 means smallest, not none below. Entities that did not publish the metric are outside the cohort entirely and are counted in neither the rank nor its denominator.

Principal and interest of $1,477 a month on $269,765 at 7.28%, against an average weekly wage worth $7,371 a month: 20.0% of one job’s pay.

  • payment = P·r / (1 − (1+r)^−n), P = $269,765 × 80% = $215,812, r = 7.28%/12 (Freddie Mac PMMS via FRED, 2026-10-01), n = 360 → $1,477/mo principal and interest
  • wage share = payment / (avg weekly wage $1,701 × 52 / 12 = $7,371) = 20% of one average job's pay (BLS QCEW 2026 Q1, all covered jobs)
  • years of wages = $269,765 / ($1,701 × 52) = 3.0
  • price-to-rent = $269,765 / ($1,460 × 12) = 15.4

The wage is one covered job’s average, not a household’s income, so this is the share of a single paycheque and not a mortgage underwriting ratio.

Estimate. Principal and interest on the typical home with 20% down over 30 years at this week's Freddie Mac average rate; compared with the average weekly wage of all jobs covered by unemployment insurance in the area (BLS QCEW), which is pay per job, not household income.

Federal obligations #

unavailableretrieved 2026-10-02USAspending did not return a recipient, agency and NAICS breakdown for this county.

That is $14,085 per covered job, against 505,469 jobs in the 2026 Q1 QCEW quarter.

per job = FY2026 obligations $7.1 bn / 505,469 covered jobs (BLS QCEW 2026 Q1, all ownerships) = $14,085

USAspending obligations are recorded where the work is performed, so a prime award performed here is counted here even when the recipient is headquartered elsewhere. Recipients are legal entities, never people.

What these numbers are not

  • County 39061 is not in the offline place manifest yet (21 of about 3,235 counties are), so its name and centroid have to come from upstream at request time.
  • USAspending did not answer for recipients, awarding agencies and NAICS.
  • Obligations are what agencies committed in FY2026 by place of performance: not outlays, and not the recipient's own location.
  • FY2026 closed 2 days ago; agencies report with up to a 45-day lag, so totals are still filling in.
  • The indicator block is the NATIONAL set, filtered only by lens. None of these series is keyed to this place: they are United States, gauge, single-state or port series and they are shown as context, not as this place's own readings.
