The affordability dashboard for Hormigueros, PR aggregates Census ACS 5-Year Estimates across 1 ZIP code covering 17,250 residents, then layers in county-level federal data to produce an overall grade of F (39/100). The headline inputs are median household income of $26,851, median home value of $121,600, median rent of $562 per month, and 30.4% 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 $532 per month (studio $461, 1BR $474, 3BR $664, 4BR $758).
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, housing. Unemployment currently reads 10.7% and poverty 37.1% — numbers worth keeping alongside the headline grade.
