built this using census household income data and zillow home prices. the ratio is just median home price divided by median household income for each county. blue = affordable (under 4x income), orange = unaffordable (over 6x). you can also switch between 5 different color palettes if the default doesn’t work for you.

How is there almost no data on the metro Boston area?

That map is fibbing. Im in Northern NV and the home prices are some of the highest in the U.S.
Elko County home prices have shown, with a median sale price around to as of early 2026, marking a year-over-year increase of roughly 2% to 15%. The market is slightly slower, with homes averaging 81-111 days on the market. Top areas include Elko and Spring Creek with houses ranging from $403,000.00 -$475,000.00

This is interesting, but affordability depends on more factors than income and price. Census bureau has data on median property tax by county and it varies a whole lot. The coastal South East will look less affordable after factoring in home insurance costs.

This is not affordability. This is just raw price data.

I live in Bernalillo County, NM, which includes all of Albuquerque and some of Rio Rancho. About 30% of New Mexicans live in this county.
Affordability depends on many factors as my city has beautiful estates in the foothills of the mountains and also dilapidated ghetto neighborhoods and trailer parks.
We bought our home for $250k in 2019. It’s now worth $400k.

Denver used to be a bit more „affordable“. I guess no longer!

Home prices are only unaffordable in nice places you would want to live.
