Methodology

Price-to-income ratio computed as Zillow ZHVI (state median home value, all homes, smoothed seasonally adjusted) divided by Census ACS 1-year median household income (B19013). Higher ratio = harder to afford. Both inputs are state aggregates — county and metro variance can be substantial.
