A common rule of thumb is to spend up to 30% of your gross income on house rent. This means if you make $100,000 a year, you’re spending $2,500 on house rent.

Of the remaining $7,500, you can spend 50% on groceries, transportation, health, loans, and many other expenses, and 20% on your savings. This is considered a standard rule for your earnings (50/30/20).

This is considered a standard rent calculation for your financial stability. According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average annual expenditure for housing rent is the largest share (33.3%).

Note: The calculation is based on 5 working days a week and 8 working hours a day. In the United States as well as some other countries, 8 working hours a day and 5 working days a week are the general rule.
