low income" in some counties.
Every year the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development releases
34;income limits," the minimum income level required to qualify for some
affordable housing programs.
To be considered "low income" in San Francisco, San Mateo and Marin
counties, a family of four must earn $117,400 a year. "Very low income
34; is considered $73,300.
The Bay Area figures are the highest in the country and continue to increase
year over year. Income limits in some Bay Area cities increased by 10

analyzing where people were searching for homes.
"Jobs and housing are really the primary criteria driving people's
decisions," Hans Johnson, a senior fellow at the Public Policy Institute
of California, told The Chronicle in March. "It's kind of a
balancing act between the two. If jobs predominate, people are moving in. If
housing predominates, you have less people moving in."
