From Harlingen, Texas: In the Rio Grande Valley, home prices have increased significantly since 2015, more than doubling in value. This has led to concerns about affordability for local residents. The question of whether paychecks are keeping pace with rising home prices has been raised by many in the community.

Data indicates that household incomes in the Valley's major areas are not increasing at the same rate as home prices. Further information on this topic is available from ValleyCentral, which has reported on the issue and provided more details on the situation in the Rio Grande Valley.
