Local towns are dealing with the issue of affordable housing, including Stonington which recently saw the construction of the $10 million, 43-unit Spruce Meadow, the first phase of an eventual 86-unit, mixed-income housing project.

The Day took a look at the available data to see the distribution and median home values, as well as the distribution of household incomes for southeastern Connecticut.

Below you’ll see a map that shows the median home values and beneath that you can select a town to see the percentage breakdown for home values and income for towns in our part of Connecticut. For instance, you’ll see that in North Stonington almost 50% of homes are valued at over $300,000 while a third of the households have an income of $50,000 or less.
