National Low Income Housing Coalition, Out of Reach 2018 Study

The National Low Income Housing Coalition's Out of Reach 2018 study is an annual report that provides data on the affordability of rental housing for low-income households in the United States. The study calculates a "Housing Wage" - the hourly wage a full-time worker must earn to afford a two-bedroom rental home at fair market rent without spending over 30% of their income on housing costs.
