Brooklyn Is Now the Least Affordable written by Jacob Davidson

 The study gauges affordability by measuring the percentage of the locality’s median monthly household income that is required to make monthly payments on a median-priced home in the area.

This study was based on a study of 475 counties in the United States. The statistics I have read about other parts of the world is most of the US single family homes are currently still affordable as compared to the worst three markets I have read about. Hong Kong, Canada (Vancouver, Toronto and Calgary) and London are much less affordable than most of the United States. It appears I need to study more about New York because prices have risen so much in the last eight-teen months.

 When RealtyTrac ran the nation-wide numbers in October, payments on a median-priced home required 26% of the average household income. In Brooklyn, by contrast, where the median home costs $615,000 and the median household brings in only $46,960, home payments take up about 98% of a regular family’s wages. That’s less affordable than Manhattan — and even than San Francisco, where half of all homes sell for $1 million or more.

High housing costs are killing the American Dream By Joshua Holland, Moyers & Company

Historically, economic and geographic mobility have been intertwined. Studies have shown that the number one reason that people pick up and move to another community is for work: Americans move out to move up.

But something has happened. In the 1980s, we began to stay put.

Here’s Timothy Noah in December’s Washington Monthly:

In the early 1950s, about 3.5 percent of all American households moved from one state to another in any given year. This proportion held up through the 1970s, and then started to fall around 1980. By 2006 interstate migration had dropped to 2 percent, and by 2010 to just 1.4 percent, or less than half the rate of the early 1950s. The latest available data, for 2011-12, shows interstate migration still stuck at a mere 1.7 percent. Though it may not square with our national self-image, America today is a nation of people who tend to stay put, with a population that is no more mobile than that of Denmark or Finland.
