Child Care Cost-to-income Ratio (2022–2024)

Definition

The child care cost-to-income ratio is a calculation of what parents in a community can expect to pay, per week, to enroll their 0–4-year-old child in full-time childcare, as a percentage of the median income. Full–time childcare is considered care provided for at least 6 hours a day, 5 days a week, or 30 or more hours a week.
