*Estimates include Jefferson County, PA, which is not part of the Third Federal Reserve District, and exclude a portion of Cambria County, PA. Refer to the methodology for a full explanation.
Statistical Significance Note: Current one- and three-year estimates are compared to prior estimates to determine if they are significantly higher (↑) or lower (↓) at the 90 percent confidence level. "−−" suggests no statistically
significant change.
Geographic Note: Some area names are followed by (part) in this table. In most cases, this identifies states and MSAs that are only partially contained within the Third Federal Reserve District. For these geographies, estimates
reflect data from Third District counties only. In addition to these cases, a portion of Cambria County, PA, and its associated metro area (Johnstown) are also excluded from this analysis. Refer to the methodology for a full
explanation.

*Estimates include Jefferson County, PA, which is not part of the Third Federal Reserve District, and exclude a portion of Cambria County, PA. Refer to the methodology for a full explanation.
**Assumes that housing costs (rent plus utilities) should consume no more than 30 percent of household income. A ratio below 100 and a corresponding negative number in the surplus/deficit column indicate that there are
fewer affordable rental units in a particular income category than there are renter households in the same category. A ratio higher than 100 and a positive value in the surplus/deficit column indicate a greater number of
affordable rental units than renter households in an income category.
Statistical Significance Note: Current one- and three-year estimates are compared to prior estimates to determine if they are significantly higher (↑) or lower (↓) at the 90 percent confidence level. "−−" suggests no statistically
significant change.
Geographic Note: Some area names are followed by (part) in this table. In most cases, this identifies states and MSAs that are only partially contained within the Third Federal Reserve District. For these geographies, estimates
reflect data from Third District counties only. In addition to these cases, a portion of Cambria County, PA, and its associated metro area (Johnstown) are also excluded from this analysis. Refer to the methodology for a full

*Estimates include Jefferson County, PA, which is not part of the Third Federal Reserve District, and exclude a portion of Cambria County, PA. Refer to the methodology for a full explanation.
**Assumes that housing costs (rent plus utilities) should consume no more than 30 percent of household income. A ratio below 100 and a corresponding negative number in the surplus/deficit column indicate that there are
fewer affordable and available rental units in a particular income category than there are renter households in the same category. A ratio higher than 100 and a positive value in the surplus/deficit column indicate a greater
number of affordable and available rental units than renter households in an income category.
Statistical Significance Note: Current one- and three-year estimates are compared to prior estimates to determine if they are significantly higher (↑) or lower (↓) at the 90 percent confidence level. "−−" suggests no statistically
significant change.
Geographic Note: Some area names are followed by (part) in this table. In most cases, this identifies states and MSAs that are only partially contained within the Third Federal Reserve District. For these geographies, estimates
reflect data from Third District counties only. In addition to these cases, a portion of Cambria County, PA, and its associated metro area (Johnstown) are also excluded from this analysis. Refer to the methodology for a full
explanation.

*Estimates include Jefferson County, PA, which is not part of the Third Federal Reserve District, and exclude a portion of Cambria County, PA. Refer to the methodology for a full explanation.
**A unit has an incomplete kitchen if it is missing a sink with a faucet, a stove/range, or a refrigerator. Plumbing facilities are considered incomplete if the unit does not have hot and cold running water, a flush toilet, or a
bathtub/shower. A unit is considered crowded if it contains more than one person per room.
Statistical Significance Note: Current one-year estimates are compared to prior estimates to determine if they are significantly higher (↑) or lower (↓) at the 90 percent confidence level. "−−" suggests no statistically significant
