In 2016, Tucson ranked first among peer western metropolitan areas in housing affordability. The new MAP indicator on housing affordability measures the share of homes sold in an area that would be affordable to a family earning the local median income. This is an important factor in the local economy because the home is the largest asset for most people and its price can affect spending in other areas, such as child and health care. Since 2009, Tucson’s high share of affordable homes has exceeded the national share. Don’t miss this new economy indicator on the MAP!
