What this measures

Balances reported in the 2022 Survey of Consumer Finances by the families who hold each kind of debt — the middle balance and the average balance within that holding group, in 2022 dollars.

What it does not measure

All residents or all families, one consistent group of families across the three categories, a set of parts that may be added, or the composition of any per-resident average on this route.

155,600 USD, 2022 dollars (normalized ×1 to reach the exact value above)

Caveat

The middle balance of debt secured by the primary residence among families who hold such debt, from the 2022 Survey of Consumer Finances, in 2022 dollars. Families with no such debt — renters, and owners who owe nothing on the home — are outside this group entirely. Not an amount per resident, and not a figure any family is billed. The three categories are three different groups of families, so these six figures are never added together and are never the composition of the per-resident average on this route.
