Calculate the UNITS per Income Category from “rent per unit” and “Number of persons” = bedrooms.

And rental expenditure is x% of income ( where x = 35 or ? )

( Where RENT SOURCE: https://www.zillow.com/rental-manager/market-trends/san-rafael-ca/?bedrooms=0 )

And a possible explanation why none of the “AFFORDABLE” units are for Acutely Low, Extremely Low and Very Low.

And why one quarter of the “AFFORDABLE” units are for MODERATE INCOME families.

All disclosed please.
