Sabana Seca, PR

The affordability dashboard for Sabana Seca, PR aggregates Census ACS 5-Year Estimates across 1 ZIP code covering 10,008 residents, then layers in county-level federal data to produce an overall grade of F (22/100). The headline inputs are median household income of $22,288, median home value of $123,800, median rent of $551 per month, and 20.5% 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 $668 per month (studio $556, 1BR $583, 3BR $882, 4BR $1,056).

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, housing, rent. Unemployment currently reads 10.2% and poverty 40.0% — numbers worth keeping alongside the headline grade.
