One in four Linn County homeowners is stretched on housing
25.0% of Linn County homeowners spend 30% or more of their income on housing, and the typical home here was built in 1978 (Census ACS 2020–2024, B25091). Median household income is $76,329.
Older housing and stretched budgets is the pairing that produces deferred maintenance — the roof gets patched because the payment comes first.
Albany is the county's market, and it is falling
Albany is the largest city in Linn County, and its median sale price is down 4.1% year over year with homes taking a median 60 days to go under contract — one of the slowest markets we cover.
Albany is also the least financially squeezed city on the I-5 corridor: only 22.5% of its mortgaged owners are cost-burdened, against 41% in Grants Pass. So when somebody in Albany calls us, it is almost never about the payment. It is an inherited house, a divorce, or a job with a start date attached.
Two numbers that disagree, and why
Look up Albany and you will get conflicting answers. Redfin has the median sale price down 4.1%; Zillow's home value index has it up 0.3%. Both are right. Redfin measures the middle price of what actually closed; Zillow's index estimates every home in town whether it sold or not, which strips out the changing mix of what happens to sell in a given quarter.
In a market Albany's size, a handful of high or low sales moves a median several percent by itself. Anybody quoting you one of those figures without the other is telling you half of it.
