The California Department of Housing and Community Development recently announced new state income restrictions, which indicate they are rising in almost every county nationwide.
The income restrictions are determined yearly using federal regulations as well as information on the median income, household income levels, and estimates for affordable housing.
Depending on the number of people in your home, these limits are used to assess your eligibility for things like affordable housing programs.
The results show that numerous cities have low-income thresholds that are less than 50% of the local median income.
FOX 11 Los Angeles confirms the news through posted a tweet on its official Twitter account;
