Les, in your chart on page 8 in Silicon Valley, mortgage payment to income is 75% (30yr FRM) and 102% (15yr FRM) per capita.

The region has the second highest risk ratio in the nation. A home here is 7X Buffalo NY. It's not clear what a "reset period" is, but it is related to creating what they call a "130% payment shock." <G>

Regards,
Amy J
PS 102% of mortgage payment to income truly tops it
