IMO it is deceptive, bc relative affordability is more than just plugging in home price and household income.

Ridiculous. No one in my (relatively poor and extremely unsophisticated) birth town in Germany would ask my family what church we attend. That would be a common question in much of America, Cincy included. I wouldn't raise my kid in such an environment.
I don't care about Michelin-starred restaurants and all that —. I do care about raising my kid in an environment free from religious weirdness and extreme ignorance. Just saying "Cincy sprawl tract home is 300k while Seattle sprawl tract home is 800k; therefore Cincy is stupid cheap" isn't a complete picture of relative affordability. Humans aren't widgets.
