mixed income

Varied earning levels

Mixed income describes housing developments or neighborhoods that combine residents across different economic levels—typically a blend of market-rate, affordable, and subsidized units.

The approach aims to avoid concentrated poverty and create diverse communities: The city converted the old projects into a mixed-income development.

As an economic term, mixed income can also refer to earnings that combine wages with other sources like investments or business profits.
