What the price-to-income ratio is

The OECD price-to-income ratio compares nominal house prices with household disposable income. A higher reading means prices have outpaced incomes relative to the index history. Latest: 74.9 in 2025 Q1.

This is an affordability ratio, not a mortgage rate and not a typical purchase price. From 1986 Q1 to 2025 Q1 (157 quarters): latest 74.9 (2025 Q1), previous 75.7 (2024 Q4); low 74.9 (2025 Q1), high 437.5 (1986 Q1).
