Question: Was it surveyed data that indicates a correlation between annual wage growth rate and increasing rate of housing prices?

No, that is data from the Census Bureau. We used the American Community Survey 1-year data, and looked at two tables – Median Gross Rent (B25064) and Median Household Income (B19013).

Here are the direct links to the Median Household Income table, and the Median Gross Rent table. For additional analysis, you might want to narrow down the geographies.

Or, if you have additional questions about it, let us know in the comments.
