Combined Severely Rent and Mortgage Burdened Households

Severe rent or mortgage burden is defined as paying more than 50 percent of one's income on rent, mortgage, and maintenance related to the rented or mortgaged property. Mortgaged monthly owner costs are comprised of mortgage, second mortgage, home equity loan or line of credit, utilities (electricity, gas, other fuels, water), real estate taxes, property insurance, and any mobile home costs or condominium fees that may be applicable. Rental costs are comprised of rent and utilities (electricity, gas, other fuels, water, and sewer).
This measure includes Crook, Deschutes, Jefferson Counties, and the northern part of Klamath County (north of Highway 138).
Northern Klamath is not pulled out separately due to the instability of the low numbers.
