If you are trying to buy a home, you’ll likely need to make more than an  average salary to afford the monthly payments. Attom Data Solutions analyzed how affordable it is to be a homeowner across the country and found that owning a home is affordable in only 41% of counties nationwide. And momentum is moving in the wrong direction for most people. Researchers found that owning a home was less affordable than the historical average across 55% of the 499 counties analyzed. That is up from 43% of these counties last year and 33% three years ago.

Princess Cruises has announced it will cancel all cruises from U.S.
ports through May 14 — more than a year after the industry came to a standstill in the middle of March last year.   Previously, Princess Cruises had canceled all itineraries through March 31.  The further suspension also applies to European cruises scheduled prior to  May 15.
