In Provo, UT, the 2024 ACS reports a median owner-occupied home value of $467,200, median household income of $64,171, and median selected monthly owner costs of $1,960 for owners with a mortgage. For the decision at hand, together, those three reference points may still help a borrower identify which search-price, income, and recurring-cost assumptions need current verification first. They remain separate medians, not the finances of one representative household, and the $1,960 measure combines recurring ownership expenses instead of real estate taxes alone. In practical terms, a useful affordability review starts with $467,200, $64,171, and $1,960, then replaces them with the borrower's documented income, cash, debts, property taxes, insurance, association charges, loan terms, and intended occupancy.

Provo, UT's $467,200 median home-value estimate is below the statewide $489,400 estimate, with a reported city-to-state gap of 4.5%. For the decision at hand, that 4.5% gap is useful for showing that a statewide midpoint may be a poor substitute for a local search range in Provo, UT.
