That is far above the 2.9 median across the 1,572 New York ZIP codes with published housing data, and well past the 3.0 ratio that marks an attainable market nationally, which means a household earning the local median income cannot finance the local median home on conventional terms.

Renting takes 32.1% of median household income (median rent $1,649 a month), above the 30% cost-burden threshold.

    11235 ranks 1,261 of 1,572 statewide on median household income and 181 of 1,572 on median home value; its income is below the $81,827 Kings County median. 37% of households own their home, far below the 80% statewide ZIP median, so most residents rent. 50% of adults hold a bachelor's degree or higher, far above the 31% median, and the poverty rate is 17.4%, far above the 9.9% statewide ZIP median.

    With 32,783 residents per square mile across 2.5 square miles of land, 11235 is far denser than the statewide ZIP median of 197 (rank 95 of 1,572). This is apartment-district density: expect multi-family housing, transit access and little single-family stock.
