Affordability Score: 51/100

Population: 2,252 · 1 ZIP codes

The affordability dashboard for Holladay, TN aggregates Census ACS 5-Year Estimates across 1 ZIP code covering 2,252 residents, then layers in county-level federal data to produce an overall grade of C- (51/100). The headline inputs are median household income of $48,944, median home value of $139,900, median rent of $819 per month, and 12.9% of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher. These four metrics alone explain most of the variance between city dashboards.

Cross-agency feeds widen the picture beyond Census demographics. HUD publishes a Fair Market Rent for a 2-bedroom in this county at $925 per month (studio $700, 1BR $705, 3BR $1,286, 4BR $1,402). Department of Labor data lists infant center-based childcare at $6,811 per year, consuming 14% of the local median household income.

Reading the overall grade requires reading all seven dimensions together. The score weights Income 20%, Safety 20%, Housing 15%, Rent 15%, Education 10%, Commute 10%, and Childcare 10%, with each sub-score benchmarked against national percentiles rather than state averages — so the grade is genuinely comparable across any city in the country. Pressure points are income, education. Unemployment currently reads 4.1% and poverty 19.1% — numbers worth keeping alongside the headline grade.
