They based it on average incomes though. Incomes people actually earn.

Exactly. The housing market is most affordable where job market is the worst. Housing prices follow the job market.

I'm around the Indy area. Lots of poor people around here. Hamilton county is pretty well to do, but many others around here just lost manufacturing jobs. That's probably part of the foreclosure rate.

All true, but keep in mind in LA you can get a job all day long...but good luck affording ANYWHERE to live on what they'll pay you. Akron actually has HIGHER average income than LA.
