The highest percentage of incomes were in the $30,000 to $49,999 range. There is also a sizable proportion in the $20,000 to $29,000 and $50,000 to $74,999 ranges. This was consistent for three of the study areas. Area III has a much more even distribution. Households making less than $43,000 per year are the most eligible for grant money for home improvements. This would include householders on the lower end of the $30,000 to $49,999 range. Many of the residents in the area would be eligible for grant money.
