A recent study found that “The World’s Borough”
was among the most unaffordable place to rent not
just in New York City, but across the country.
A new study from AdvisorSmith sought to find
out which counties in the United States were
among the least affordable for renters. According
to their findings, while the Bronx and Kings
counties held the first and third spots, respectively,
Queens came in as the eight least affordable
county for renters in the nation.
The study found that the average Queens household
has 2.86 people and has a median income of
$69,320. With the weighted monthly rent sitting
at $2,097.74, this puts the income-to-rent ratio
at 36.3 percent.
When comparing against just the larger counties
in the United States, Queens moves its way
up the list, becoming the sixth least affordable
large county in the country.. The Bronx and Kings
County, both classified as large counties as well,
still held their spots at number one and number
three, respectively.
