美国教师工资几乎要翻一番才能买得起中价住房,在通勤距离内仅能买得起14%的住房。 U.S. teacher salaries must nearly double to afford median-priced homes, with only 14% affordable within commuting distance.

Redfin报告指出,美国教师的工资几乎要翻一番才能买得起一个中价住房,目前的平均工资超过64 000美元,低于所需的113 000美元的年收入。 The Redfin report states that U.S. teacher salaries need to nearly double to afford a median-priced home, with the current median salary of over $64,000 falling short of the required $113,000 annual income. 教师只能负担14%的离学校交通不远的住房。 Teachers can only afford 14% of homes within commuting distance from their schools. 虽然租金支付能力略有提高,但仍低于人口规模前的水平。 While rental affordability has increased slightly, it still remains below pre-pandemic levels. 在学校附近建造经济适用住房是美国决策者的一个优先事项,因为教师工薪年投资不足。 Building affordable housing near schools is a priority for U.S. policymakers, given teacher salaries' years of underinvestment.
